  • Terance Mann (leg) questionable for Game 6 Friday
    Terance Mann (right lower leg contusion) is questionable to play in Game 6 against Dallas on Friday.

    Advice: Mann’s potential absence would open up a starting spot, which will likely be filled by Norman Powell. Mann has been an important piece of their starting unit, and it will be difficult to survive in Dallas without Mann and Kawhi Leonard. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:49 pm
     
  • Officially deemed questionable
    Harris (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Friday's Game 6 against the Cavaliers.

    Advice: Harris was already deemed a game-time decision for Game 6, so his questionable injury label isn't surprising. If the 29-year-old guard is ruled out, Caleb Houstan, Markelle Fultz, Cole Anthony and Anthony Black are all candidates to receive increased playing time. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:48 pm

  • Available for Game 6
    Beverley (oblique) is available for Thursday's Game 6 against the Pacers.

  • Deemed game-time call for Game 6
    Harris (hamstring) is considered a game-time decision for Friday's Game 6 against the Cavaliers, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Harris suffered a right hamstring strain during Tuesday's Game 5 against Cleveland, but he participated in the walkthrough portion of Thursday's practice.

  • Decent output in playoff exit
    Jovic ended with eight points (3-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds and four assists over 28 minutes during Wednesday's 118-84 loss to the Celtics in Game 5 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

    Advice: Jovic was forced to embrace a bigger role in the second half of the season and was a permanent fixture in the starting unit since mid-February. While he had some strong performances here and there, he lacked consistency on a game-to-game basis, and he was unable to become a reliable offensive alternative when the Heat needed him, especially in games where they were shorthanded. It remains to be seen if Jovic will remain a regular starter for the Heat next season. but it's worth noting he averaged 9.2 points, 4.7 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game across 33 starts since the beginning of February, counting both the regular season and the playoffs.
