Ware has been sidelined for Miami’s last four games but could return to the lineup against Orlando. Nikola Jovic has taken on a larger role with Ware out, and he has been a solid streaming option for fantasy managers. He should remain productive if Ware remains out.

Mitchell has missed the last three games and is in danger of missing a fourth. Kasparas Jakučionis has been starting in his place and will likely remain in that role if Mitchell remains out. He hasn’t been great as a starter, but his minutes have gone up, so he should get an opportunity to produce.

Post logged 28 minutes in the Warriors’ blowout loss to the Wolves and finished as Golden State’s leading scorer. He was one of five starters to score in double figures, with his three-point production leading the way. Despite being one of the Warriors’ more productive players on Monday, fantasy managers shouldn’t come away from this game with any new thoughts on Post — he remains a low-floor option in fantasy leagues whose value is tied to his three-point shot.

Podziemski was one of the limited regular starters who was available to play in Monday’s game. In his 28 minutes, inefficient shooting limited his scoring production, but it was enough to get him into double figures on the evening. The third-year guard also contributed on the glass and was one of Golden State’s best distributors on Monday. He wasn’t at his best in this game, but he will have plenty of opportunities going forward to log some big stat lines.

Santos got the start for a depleted Warriors team on Monday and was one of their most productive players. In his 26 minutes, he crashed the glass hard to reach double figures in rebounds, and was the only Warriors player to notch at least one block and steal apiece. Inefficient shooting, especially from beyond the arc, prevented his scoring total from being higher. Yet, he made it out of single digits and tallied his first double-double of the season.

Three of the starters from Sunday’s win over the Timberwolves — Stephen Curry, Draymond Green and Al Horford — are unavailable for Monday’s rematch, as is reserve De’Anthony Melton. Spencer, Santos and Post move into the starting lineup, and the absences also boost the fantasy values of Podziemski and Moody.

After totaling 13 points on 5-of-18 shooting in the prior two games, Jaquez ended Miami’s five-game road trip on a positive note. After scoring 20 points or more in two games last season, he’s up to 12 just past the halfway point of the 2025-26 campaign. And with Tyler Herro (ribs) out, Jaquez is one of the Heat players who boasts a higher fantasy ceiling due to the increased opportunities to contribute offensively.

The positive for Powell and those who have him rostered was that he recorded his first double-double of the season on Sunday. The downside was that he had a brutal night shooting the basketball. Powell made two of his 11 attempts from beyond the arc and shot 30 percent from two in one of his most inefficient efforts of the season. While Powell didn’t shoot the ball well in the final two games of Miami’s road trip, his overall fantasy value remains in a good place.

Adebayo scored at least 22 points in each of the final four games of Miami’s five-game west coast swing, picking up the slack to help account for the absences of Tyler Herro and Kel’el Ware. Over the past two weeks, the Heat captain has been a top-20 player in eight-cat formats. After a slow start to the season, Adebayo is providing the value that fantasy managers hoped to get from him immediately. The Heat play four games in Week 15, but they won’t play their first until Wednesday.

Melton had scored at least 20 points in three of his last five games entering play Sunday. The 27-year-old shooting guard failed to reach that mark Sunday, but it was still somewhat of an encouraging game for Melton because he took 13 field goal attempts in 21 minutes. With Jimmy Butler III (knee) done for the year, the Warriors are desperate for offense. Even with Melton playing about 20 minutes per game, he’s looking for his own shot when he’s out there. He’s returned 12th-round per game value over the last two weeks.

Moody’s role in the offense continues to grow with Jimmy Butler III (knee) and Jonathan Kuminga (knee) out of the lineup. The 23-year-old guard has made at least three three-pointers in six of the last seven games. Moody isn’t going to provide much in the other categories, but he can have some value in deeper formats for fantasy managers that need help from behind the three-point arc.

Coming off a 38-point performance in the Warriors’ loss to the Mavericks on Thursday, Curry merely dropped 26 points in the victory over the Timberwolves on Sunday. With Jimmy Butler III (knee) and Jonathan Kuminga (knee) both sidelined, Curry is being asked to carry the Warriors offense. The 37-year-old point guard could be in for a big second half of the season if his current usage holds. Golden State has three games in the upcoming week, starting with a rematch with the Timberwolves on Monday.

Kuminga injured his left knee and left ankle during Thursday’s loss to the Mavericks. If there’s a positive, it’s that the hyperextension of his left knee did not cause any ligament damage.

With Kel’el Ware (hamstring) out, Jović has essentially been Bam Adebayo’s backup in recent games. That’s required some adjusting on his part.

While he hasn’t lit up the scoreboard, Wiggins’ consistency has made him a reliable option in category leagues. Over the past two weeks, he’s ranked just outside the top-50 in eight-cat formats.

The Heat end Week 14 with a game against the Suns on Sunday.

While Larsson has started the Heat’s last six games, his offensive production has been inconsistent. Given the trend in his first five starts, the second-year wing was due for a double-digit scoring effort after tallying six points in Thursday’s loss to the Trail Blazers. Larsson was up to the task, with the 20 points being the most he’s recorded in a game since December 26. With Tyler Herro (ribs) out indefinitely, Larsson is worth a look in deep leagues, despite the inconsistent offensive output.

Miami’s January 19 loss to the Warriors may have been the low point for Adebayo, who shot 1-of-13 from the field that night.

Over the past two weeks, Adebayo has been a third-round player in eight-cat formats, even with that poor showing against the Warriors. Miami ends its Week 14 slate on Sunday in Phoenix.

The NBA’s decision to push Saturday’s game back a day has created a back-to-back, so a few of the Warriors’ veterans are back on the injury report.

Kuminga exited Thursday’s loss to the Mavericks during the first half after injuring his left knee on a drive to the basket. However, according to Stein, the injury also affected Kuminga’s left ankle.

For those questioning whether they should grab Melton off the waiver wire, Thursday’s performance should be a convincing one. He needed 23 minutes off the bench to record a complete stat line, and he’s scored at least 23 points in three of his last five appearances. While Melton remains outside the top-150 in season-long value, that was influenced by the time he missed at the start of the season. With Jimmy Butler III (knee) done for the season, the reward outweighs the risk when it comes to adding Melton.

With Jimmy Butler III (knee) done for the season and Jonathan Kuminga (knee) leaving Thursday’s game during the first half, the Warriors needed even more production from Curry.

The Warriors forward scored 12 points in the third quarter alone, helping make the game somewhat competitive after Golden State fell behind by 29. With Kuminga get legitimate chances to contribute? Or will this be a “shop window” phase in which the team looks to boost his trade value ahead of the February 5 deadline?

After dropping a season-high 24 points in Monday’s win over the Heat, Podziemski was probably due to cool down. He moved into the starting lineup on Tuesday, and the overall stat line was modest. However, one mediocre performance as the fifth starter should not prompt fantasy managers to immediately drop Podziemski, especially if he holds onto that role. He’ll look to bounce back on Thursday against the Mavericks.
