Jović had missed Miami’s last four games, but will rejoin the rotation on Wednesday during the team’s five-game winning streak. He’ll likely come off the bench for the 14th time in 15 appearances to provide the Heat with a bit of a scoring boost. The fourth-year forward has struggled with his shooting efficiency thus far. However, he’s averaging career highs in rebounds and assists. A return to form from beyond the arc would help his fantasy production.

Smith is available after a hip injury landed him on the initial injury report. While he should remain in the rotation, his playing time may decrease, as this will be the healthiest the Heat have been this season. Leave Smith on the waiver wire.

Jaquez was upgraded from questionable to probable earlier Wednesday, so the final upgrade was expected. He’ll continue to come off the bench, but there may be some concern about Jaquez’s fantasy value, given that Andrew Wiggins and Norman Powell are also available. He’s worth holding onto for now, but that could change down the road.

After sitting out Monday’s win over the Mavericks, Powell is back for the Heat. However, it’s unknown if he’ll start or come off the bench. If Powell resumes his usual duties as a starter, Pelle Larsson is the player most likely headed to the bench. However, Powell can provide excellent value as a reserve, serving as the primary scoring option for the second unit.

Wiggins is back after missing the last three games with a left hip flexor injury. He’ll likely be in the starting lineup, with Kel’el Ware moving to the bench. Ware will get the minutes needed to provide solid fantasy value, so do not even consider dropping him.

Jaquez and Smith were initially questionable for Wednesday’s game. Both are on track to play, and the Heat may have their full rotation as a result. With Andrew Wiggins and Norman Powell also probable, Jaquez and Smith may have lower fantasy ceilings for Wednesday’s action. Of the two, Jaquez is better able to deliver reliable value.

Given how things are trending, the Heat should be as close to full strength as they’ve been this season for the final game before Thanksgiving. Wiggins has missed the last three games, opening up a spot in the starting lineup for Kel’el Ware. The second-year center will likely be bumped to the bench if Wiggins plays. As for Jović, he’ll provide additional depth off the bench but is unlikely to impact fantasy basketball in that role.

Smith is one of four Heat players questionable for Wednesday’s game due to hip injuries. If he’s unable to play, the Heat will need to fill the backup point guard role, but multiple players already in the rotation may absorb the available minutes. There’s no need to add anyone to account for Smith’s potential absence.

Jaquez played 33 minutes off the bench in Monday’s win over the Mavericks, and his playing time may decrease on Wednesday if he plays. Norman Powell (groin) is probable, and with Tyler Herro also in the fold, Jaquez stands to have a lower fantasy ceiling. If he can’t play, more minutes will be available to Simone Fontecchio.

Wiggins has missed the last three games with a left hip flexor injury. If he remains out against the Bucks on Wednesday, Kel’el Ware will continue to start. If Wiggins is back, the Heat could be at full strength for the first time this season with Tyler Herro, Bam Adebayo, Wiggins and likely Norman Powell (groin) in the starting lineup.

Jović has missed Miami’s last four games with a hip injury, freeing up additional minutes for Jaime Jaquez Jr. and Simone Fontecchio. However, with Tyler Herro available and Norman Powell (groin) considered probable, all three Heat reserves may lose out on playing time in Wednesday’s NBA Cup matchup. Of the three, Jaquez is the safest option in terms of fantasy value.

Powell missed Monday’s game with a groin injury, but his probable listing for Wednesday’s game against the Bucks indicates it shouldn’t be a lengthy absence for him. The 32-year-old shooting guard is likely to make his return against the Bucks and play alongside Tyler Herro for the first time this year.

Green sprained his foot last Friday against the Trail Blazers and missed Monday’s game against the Jazz. The 25-year-old power forward is listed as questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Rockets. If Green is out again, Trayce Jackson-Davis and Quinten Post will fill in the open frontcourt minutes.

Curry knocked down six three-pointers on his way to a fifth 30-point performance in his last six games. Golden State — missing defensive anchor Draymond Green due to a sprained right foot — opened the night in an 11-0 hole before ripping off a 17-3 run and exploding for 41 points in the second quarter to take a commanding 67-55 lead into halftime. The 37-year-old generational talent is averaging a sublime 28.8 points, 3.5 rebounds, four assists, 1.4 steals and 0.5 blocks through 15 games. The Warriors will try to keep the momentum going when they host the Rockets on Wednesday night.

With Draymond Green (foot) sidelined, Butler filled every gap on the floor, piling up a stat line as hearty as a Thanksgiving plate. The 36-year-old veteran has been phenomenal this season, delivering second-round value from a fantasy standpoint, averaging 19.9 points, 5.6 rebounds, 4.9 assists and 1.7 steals through 17 games.

Payton drew a rare start in place of an injured Draymond Green, who sat out this contest with a sprained right foot, but isn’t expected to require a lengthy absence after an MRI didn’t reveal any structural damage. The eight assists were a career-high for the 32-year-old defensive specialist as he stepped into more of a facilitating role with Green out of the picture.

Adebayo finished Monday’s game as one of four Heat players to score in double figures — despite not shooting well from beyond the arc, he utilized the free-throw line to find his scoring production. The veteran forward’s shooting has been inconsistent since returning from injury on November 19th, but he has consistently hovered around 20 points on a nightly basis. His rebounding has also been uneven as Kel’el Ware has dominated the glass recently. Adebayo should start to round back into for the further removed he is from the toe injury

Herro impressed in his season debut on Monday. He shot the ball efficiently and led the Heat in scoring on the night. Yet, he didn’t make a three-pointer, failed to register an assist, and didn’t get to the free-throw line. In other words, Herro still left a lot of meat on the bone. But it’s encouraging that he was able to have such a strong production regardless. As he continues to reintegrate himself, the production should only increase.

Ware’s fantastic stretch of basketball continued on Monday. Against the Mavericks, he notched his third straight game of at least 20 points and 14 rebounds — his three three-pointers and trio of triples gave him even more of a productive fantasy basketball night. After a bit of a slower start to the season, Ware has really taken off and proven again that he can produce alongside Bam Adebayo in the frontcourt. Regardless, his ceiling remains high as a nightly double-double threat in just his second year in the league.

The Warriors are without Draymond Green (foot), their best defender by a sizable margin. To account for his absence, head coach Steve Kerr has inserted Payton II into the starting lineup. The Warriors will also start Post at center, with rookie wing Will Richard heading to the bench to free up a second spot.

Herro will take the floor for the first time all season on Monday. He led the Heat in scoring a season ago, which is when he earned his first All-Star selection. His return comes on a day when the Heat will be without its leading scorer, Norman Powell, who is dealing with a groin injury. Fantasy managers should be prepared to be patient with Herro in the early going, with him potentially being under a minutes restriction as he works his way back into form. The Heat are fourth in the Eastern Conference standings.

Green suffered a sprained foot during Friday’s game against the Trail Blazers. He’s been ruled out for Monday’s game against the Jazz and there’s no firm timetable on his return yet.

Wiggins is set to miss his third consecutive game with a left hip flexor injury. The 30-year-old forward’s absence will likely lead to another start for Kel’el Ware, who has already started 13 games this season. Ware should be rostered in most formats at this point.

Powell dropped 32 points in the win over the 76ers on Sunday, but he’ll sit out the second game of a back-to-back against the Mavericks on Monday. The 32-year-old shooting guard had been on the injury report with left hip irritation in previous games, but is now dealing with a groin injury. His usage should be absorbed by Tyler Herro, who is set to make his season debut Monday.

With it being initially reported a few days ago that Herro was targeting November 24 for his season debut, Sunday’s report is unsurprising. If he does play against the Mavericks, fantasy managers should anticipate the Heat guard being under a minutes restriction. Norman Powell’s fantasy value should be fine once Herro is fully cleared, but Pelle Larsson may take a significant hit to his.

Kuminga has missed Golden State’s last five games with bilateral patellar tendinitis. Following Sunday’s practice, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said the forward wasn’t moving well, and he’s unsure when Kuminga will be able to play. The team may get imaging on Kuminga’s knees, so fantasy managers should consider him out indefinitely until the Warriors provide further clarity. Moses Moody has been the replacement in the starting lineup, and he’s worth a look in deeper leagues.

The Warriors face the Jazz on Monday in the first of three games scheduled for Week 6. Horford has been more important to the Warriors than to fantasy managers when healthy, so the impact of his absence on the latter will be minimal. With Draymond Green dealing with a sprained foot, the Warriors will need to call on Quentin Post and Trayce Jackson-Davis for more production in the short term.

Adebayo has scored at least 18 points in all three games he’s played since returning from a toe injury, and he recorded his first post-injury double-double on Sunday. Over the past week, he’s been ranked just outside the top-25 in nine-cat formats. Adebayo’s season-long value has not aligned with his Yahoo! ADP (32), but he isn’t far away. The Heat play three games during Week 6, starting with the Mavericks on Monday.

While his production did slow in recent games ahead of Sunday’s matinee, Jaquez continues to outperform his Yahoo! ADP of 135. Having scored 20 points or more in six games this season, he’s posting career-high averages in points, rebounds and assists. Jaquez is rostered in 50 percent of Yahoo! leagues, but the percentage may decrease slightly during Week 6 due to the Heat’s poor schedule. Two of their three games are on Monday and Wednesday, when most of the league is playing, leaving fringe options less desirable in fantasy.

A double-digit rebounder in eight straight games, Ware has posted 20-point double-doubles in two straight. This version of the second-year center is the one the Heat wants to see consistently, and he’s answering the call. Over the past two weeks, Ware has provided top-10 per-game value in nine-cat formats. Unfortunately for managers who have him rostered, the Heat play three games during Week 6 instead of four.

Powell came out hot on Sunday, scoring ten points in the first quarter. The Heat guard would finish with his fourth 30-point game of the season, once again leading the way offensively. Powell has been a fantasy standout thus far, and his play has been one reason the Heat have been as explosive offensively as they’ve been in years. Tyler Herro, who has been out after undergoing offseason ankle surgery, could make his season debut on Monday. Powell’s fantasy value should be fine, but the dynamic between those two is worth tracking.

Due to left hip irritation, Powell was initially probable for Sunday’s game. He’ll take on his usual role as Miami’s top perimeter scoring option in what could be the team’s final game before Tyler Herro makes his season debut. It has been reported that the Heat guard is targeting Monday’s home game against the Mavericks for his first action after undergoing offseason ankle surgery.

Wiggins missed Friday’s game against the Bulls with Kel’el Ware moving into the starting lineup. The 30-year-old small forward is dealing with a left hip flexor injury. Wiggins’ absence is likely more good news for fantasy managers that have Ware, who should continue to start.

Powell is listed as probable with left hip irritation. The 32-year-old shooting guard is off to a great start, providing second-round value so far this year. With Tyler Herro (ankle) and Andrew Wiggins (hip) already ruled out, this is another opportunity for Powell to have a ceiling game.

Back in the lineup after sitting out Wednesday’s loss to the Heat, Butler recorded a solid stat line against the Trail Blazers. Availability has been a concern in the past, but the only two games he’s missed this season have been part of back-to-backs. Butler’s return meant that Gui Santos was bumped to the bench, and he received a DNP-CD. Golden State won’t play another back-to-back until the end of Week 7, so Butler managers should be able to get in a solid run of games.

Moved back to the bench on Friday after starting Wednesday’s loss to the Heat, Podziemski provided solid value against the Trail Blazers. He recorded his second 20-point game in as many outings while also recording three steals. Rostered in 37 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Podziemski is providing 11th-round value in nine-cat formats this season. The production hasn’t been great, but he’s worth having while the Warriors await Jonathan Kuminga’s return from bilateral knee soreness.

Curry had it rolling to begin Friday’s game, hitting six three-pointers and scoring 23 points in the first half. Portland did a better job defensively after halftime, but the Warriors guard still notched his second 30-point game in as many outings.

Ware moved into the starting lineup with Andrew Wiggins out against the Bulls on Friday.

Ware showed his upside once again when given the opportunity with 20 points and 14 rebounds in 28 minutes. While he figures to move back to the bench soon, Ware still has to be rostered in most leagues.
