• Jaime Jaquez Jr., Caleb Martin probable Friday
    Jaime Jaquez Jr. (left ankle discomfort) and Caleb Martin (right ankle discomfort) are probable for Friday’s game against the Trail Blazers.

    Advice: Jaquez and Martin are on track to play Friday night and will figure prominently within the Heat rotation. Jimmy Butler (illness) is also probable after sitting out Tuesday’s loss to the Warriors, and his return would push Jaquez to the bench. Jaquez and Martin are worth rostering in deep leagues, as the Heat remain without Tyler Herro (foot) and Duncan Robinson (back). Rotoworld 20 minutes ago
     
  • Expected to play Friday
    Martin (ankle) is probable for Friday's game versus the Trail Blazers, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Advice: Martin continues to deal with a nagging ankle injury but is expected to play through it Friday. If Martin is upgraded to available, he should continue to serve as one of Miami's primary options off the bench at the forward position. Rotowire.com 20 minutes ago
     
  • Dealing with minor ankle issue
    Jaquez is probable for Friday's game against Portland due to an ankle injury, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Advice: Jaquez continues to manage knee and ankle injuries, but he's missed just one game since the beginning of February. Over his last 26 appearances (five starts), Jaquez has averaged 9.6 points, 4.0 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.0 steals in 27.8 minutes per game. Rotowire.com 22 minutes ago
     
  • Heads back to G League
    The Heat assigned Robinson to the G League's Sioux Falls Skyforce on Thursday, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Advice: Robinson will head back to the G League now that Kevin Love's (heel) return is imminent. Robinson should continue to receive increased playing time with Sioux Falls. Rotowire.com 23 minutes ago
  • Officially probable
    Love (heel/personal) is probable for Friday's game against Portland, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Advice: Love missed Thursday's practice for personal reasons and continues to manage a heel issue but should still suit up Friday, which would mark his first appearance since Feb. 27. If the veteran is cleared to suit up, he'll presumably handle a limited role off the bench. Rotowire.com 25 minutes ago
     
  • Jimmy Butler, Kevin Love probable vs. Portland
    Jimmy Butler (illness) and Kevin Love (right heel bruise/personal reasons) are probable to play against Portland on Friday.

    Advice: Butler is expected to be back after a one-game absence, which should push Jaime Jaquez Jr. (ankle) back to the bench. Love hasn’t played since February, but he should be back on Friday after missing Thursday’s practice due to personal reasons. He should split the power forward minutes with Caleb Martin and NIkola Jovic, which will limit the fantasy upside of all three players. Rotoworld 27 minutes ago
     
  • Expected to play against Portland
    Butler (illness) is probable for Friday's game versus the Trail Blazers, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.

    Advice: Butler is expected to return to action Friday after missing Miami's previous contest with a non-COVID illness. If he's upgraded to available, the star forward will likely reclaim his starting spot from Jaime Jaquez (ankle). Rotowire.com 27 minutes ago
     
  • Won't play Friday
    Robinson (back) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Trail Blazers, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Advice: Robinson and Tyler Herro (foot) remain out, so Patty Mills is in line to draw another start at shooting guard. Robinson's next chance to suit up will come Sunday in Washington, but he'll be unlikely to play in that contest unless he can return to practice Saturday. Rotowire.com 28 minutes ago
     
  • Remains out Friday
    Herro (foot) won't play in Friday's game versus the Trail Blazers, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.

    Advice: Herro's absence streak will extend to 16 games Friday due to right foot tendinitis. However, the 23-year-old guard is ramping up toward a return, with Sunday's matchup with Washington being his next chance to take the floor. Rotowire.com 31 minutes ago
