Jimmy Butler's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (illness) was considered questionable heading into Sunday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He sat out of practice on Saturday and is currently listed as questionable on the injury report. Despite that, Butler is reportedly ready to go and will suit up for this game, according to Chris Haynes. If active, Butler should resume his role in the starting five which will mean Jaime Jaquez Jr. and Alec Burks won't see a boost at all. Fantasy managers should check back ahead of tip-off just in case Butler suffers a setback.

However, he'll miss his fourth-straight contest on Sunday, so his next chance to return will be on Monday night versus the Philadelphia 76ers. With that in mind, Tyler Herro, averaging 28.7 points in the three games without Butler this season, is a lock for season-long fantasy setups. That also applies to DFS contests. At the same time, Bam Adebayo and Jaime Jaquez Jr. could also see an uptick in fantasy production.

Butler, a proven difference-maker, is averaging 16.1 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 4.9 assists this season.

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Butler is set to miss his third straight game due to a sprained right ankle. It's uncertain how long Butler is going to be sidelined, but his next chance to play is a rematch against the Pacers on Sunday. The absence of Butler will mean Tyler Herro will be asked to do more of the heavy lifting on offense. Also, Haywood Highsmith is expected to remain in the starting five. Highsmith has been quiet over the last two games, but has some low-end streaming appeal with Butler sidelined.
