Pelle Larsson Active on Tuesday
Miami Heat guard Pelle Larsson (leg) is available for Tuesday's Play-In Tournament game against the Charlotte Hornets. The 25-year-old has been cleared to suit up after he was previously listed as probable due to a right lower-leg contusion. Larsson averaged 11.4 points, 3.5 rebounds and 3.4 assists across 70 regular-season outings and should be productive off the bench for the Heat during tonight's clash.

Dru Smith Ruled Out Against Hornets on Tuesday
Miami Heat guard Dru Smith (foot) is unavailable for Tuesday's Play-In Tournament matchup with the Charlotte Hornets. The 28-year-old has been sidelined since April 4 due to right foot soreness. If the Heat defeat the Hornets, Smith could potentially return for Friday's game to determine the No. 8 seed in the Eastern Conference. His unavailability won't have much fantasy relevance, as he has played a reduced role down the stretch of the 2025-26 campaign.

Pelle Larsson Considered Questionable for Tuesday
Miami Heat guard Pelle Larsson (leg) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's Play-In Tournament game against the Charlotte Hornets. The 25-year-old is at risk of missing the contest due to a left lower-leg contusion that sidelined him for Sunday's regular-season finale. Fantasy managers should expect an update on his status closer to tipoff. If Larsson is unavailable, Jaime Jaquez Jr. and Simone Fontecchio would be in line for increased workloads.

Simone Fontecchio Slated to Suit Up Against Hornets
Miami Heat forward Simone Fontecchio (ankle) is expected to suit up for Tuesday's Play-In Tournament game against the Charlotte Hornets. Fontecchio is set to return after missing Sunday's regular-season finale due to left ankle soreness. The 30-year-old could see increased frontcourt minutes if Pelle Larsson (leg), who is questionable, is unable to play.

Nikola Jovic Unavailable for Tuesday
Miami Heat forward/center Nikola Jovic (ankle) is unavailable for Tuesday's Play-In Game against the Charlotte Hornets. Jovic will miss his fifth consecutive contest due to a left ankle sprain. If the Heat defeat the Hornets, the 22-year-old could potentially return for Friday's matchup to determine the No. 8 seed in the Eastern Conference. His absence on Tuesday is unlikely to have a significant fantasy impact, as he averaged just 7.3 points and 3.3 rebounds in 17.2 minutes across 47 appearances during the regular season.

Norman Powell Won't Play Against Wizards
Miami Heat guard/forward Norman Powell (groin) will be sidelined on Friday against the Washington Wizards. He has a sore right groin and will be held out of action after Powell logged 17 minutes in Thursday's loss to Toronto. Tyler Herro (foot) also won't suit up for this one, so Bam Adebayo could run amok on offense against the Wizards again. The rest of the group should also have more scoring chances, while the likes of Kasparas Jakucionis and Myron Gardner could see a lot more playing time compared to their typical workload.

Tyler Herro Out on Friday
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (foot) won't be in action on Friday against the Washington Wizards. He has been ruled out for the second game of a back-to-back due to a sore right foot. Herro tallied 15 points, four rebounds, and four assists in 28 minutes during Thursday's loss to Toronto. With Herro out, there will be more backcourt minutes available for Kasparas Jakucionis and Pelle Larsson. Miami's injury report also includes Davion Mitchell (shoulder), who is questionable, so Jakucionis could get a chance to join Larsson in the starting lineup.

Dru Smith Iffy for Thursday
Miami Heat guard Dru Smith (foot) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He didn't play on Tuesday night against the Raptors, and it's unclear whether he will be part of the lineup for Thursday's rematch as Smith nurses a sore right foot. The 28-year-old has been highly rated by the organization, but his playing time has dried up recently. Over his last five outings, Smith has averaged just 8.4 minutes per game. Miami won't feel his absence if Smith isn't available on Thursday.

Norman Powell Questionable Thursday
Miami Heat guard/forward Norman Powell (groin) is questionable for Thursday's tilt against the Toronto Raptors. These teams also played in Toronto on Tuesday, and Powell returned to action after missing four games due to illness. He might now take some time off again because of a sore right groin. Pelle Larsson has benefited from Powell's absence and would be worthy of fantasy consideration if he remains in the starting lineup on Thursday. The Swedish sophomore has posted 12.8 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 3.8 assists per game in a starting role this season.

Tyler Herro Active on Tuesday
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (personal) is available for Tuesday's matchup with the Toronto Raptors. Herro was out of action due to personal issues during Saturday's 152-136 win over Washington. The 26-year-old is averaging 21.4 points, 3.9 assists, and 4.6 rebounds in 31.7 minutes per contest across 30 games this season. Fantasy managers can expect a normal workload for Herro in his return, making him a solid option across all fantasy formats.

Tyler Herro a Late Scratch Saturday, Simone Fontecchio Starts
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (personal) will sit out Saturday's contest against the Washington Wizards. Herro was initially expected to play after being cleared from a foot issue, but he will miss the contest for personal reasons. Simone Fontecchio will fill in for him in the starting lineup. The Italian forward has produced 10.7 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 2.3 assists per game in seven starts this season.

Tyler Herro Cleared to Play Saturday
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (foot) will play on Saturday against the Washington Wizards. The team has upgraded his status from probable to available. After back-to-back 30-point games, Herro slowed down on Wednesday against Boston, but he has an excellent fantasy matchup on Saturday. The Wizards are probably still having nightmares of Bam Adebayo dropping 83 points on them last month, a game Herro missed. He now has an opportunity to make up for it.

Andrew Wiggins Available Vs. Wizards
Miami Heat guard/forward Andrew Wiggins (toe) is available for Saturday's game against the Washington Wizards and should continue to fill a steady two-way role. Wiggins has averaged 13.2 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.4 steals, 1.4 blocks, and 2.6 three-pointers over his last five games while shooting 47.9 percent from the field and 77.8 percent from the line. Wiggins remains useful in category leagues, particularly for defensive stats and strong percentages in standard formats.

Norman Powell Still Sidelined Saturday
Miami Heat guard/forward Norman Powell (illness) will not play in Saturday's game against the Washington Wizards, extending his absence to four straight contests. Pelle Larsson should remain in the starting group after posting 18 points, six assists, three steals, three rebounds, and two three-pointers in 38 minutes last game. Larsson looks like a solid short-term streaming option while Powell remains out, especially for managers needing points, steals, and assists. Tyler Herro should continue to carry more of the scoring load, while Jaime Jaquez Jr. could also see steady minutes off the bench.

Tyler Herro Likely Available Vs. Wizards
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (foot) is probable for Saturday's game against the Washington Wizards and is expected to handle his usual workload. The 26-year-old has averaged 21.6 points, 3.4 three-pointers, 3.0 rebounds, and 4.6 assists over his last five games and finished with 18 points, seven assists, four three-pointers, and one block in 40 minutes last game. Herro should continue to see extra touches with Norman Powell (illness) sidelined, keeping him locked into most fantasy lineups.
