The Charlotte Hornets are trading guard Terry Rozier to the Miami Heat for a 2027 first-round pick and Kyle Lowry. After bowing out of the Damian Lillard sweepstakes this past offseason, the Heat resort to a contingency plan of sorts to bolster their offense ahead of February's trade deadline. Rozier's presence will offer a secondary ball handler and shot creator to Miami, who rank in the bottom 10 of the NBA in points per game (110.9) and field-goal percentage (46.4%). The 29-year-old combo guard was putting together an All-Star-caliber season in Charlotte with LaMelo Ball missing so much time this year, producing third-round fantasy value on averages of 23.2 points, 6.6 assists, 2.8 three-pointers, and 1.1 steals in 35.5 minutes over 30 games. Rozier's counting stats are in line to decrease a bit on a contending squad in South Beach, but his career-high 45.9% field-goal shooting is sustainable alongside his star teammates.
Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (illness) is available for Tuesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. As expected, Rozier will play after being listed as probable heading into this game. The expectation is that he'll move right into the starting five, which will shift Ish Smith back to the bench. Fantasy managers who have Rozier rostered can get him back in their lineups on Tuesday night.
Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (illness) is listed as probable to suit up on Tuesday against the Sacramento Kings due to an illness. Rozier was initially expected to play on Monday against the Denver Nuggets but was later downgraded to out, although his absence is likely to remain at a minimum. T-Ro should command Charlotte's offense versus the Kings, and he's bouncing back after a down 2022-23 for third-round fantasy numbers in 20 games overall during 2023-24. In 14 contests without LaMelo Ball (ankle) this year, Rozier is putting up 24.3 points, 7.9 assists, 4.0 rebounds, 3.1 threes, and 1.4 steals per game. Ish Smith notched double figures with 10 points in 29 minutes amid Monday's spot start, but he should head back to the Hornets' second unit with Rozier expected back.
Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (illness) won't play on Monday against the Denver Nuggets. He's not feeling well and had been listed as questionable leading up to this one. However, he'll get the night off, so his next chance to return will be on Tuesday in Sacramento. The Hornets are down some of their other potent scorers, with Gordon Hayward (calf) and LaMelo Ball (ankle) also out. As a result, Brandon Miller and Miles Bridges should get plenty of minutes and lead the way offensively. There's also streaming potential for guys like Cody Martin, Bryce McGowens, and Ish Smith, although all three are risky options in any fantasy format.
Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (illness) is questionable for Monday's matchup with the Denver Nuggets. He's under the weather, so he may join Gordon Hayward (calf) and LaMelo Ball (ankle) on the shelf for the meeting against the defending champs. If that's the case, Ish Smith, Cody Martin, and Nick Smith Jr. could see more action. However, Miles Bridges, P.J. Washington, and Brandon Miller would be the favorites to lead things offensively without Rozier on the floor.
