Mitchell has missed the last five games for Miami and is now expected to make it six absences in a row. Kasparas Jakučionis should continue to start, but his minutes have been too low to make much of an impact as a streaming option. Dru Smith should play more minutes, but his value is often tied to steals.

Powell has been a big part of what Miami does on offense, especially with Tyler Herro sidelined. In his absence, one of Simone Fontecchio or Jaime Jaquez Jr. will likely replace him in the starting unit. Jaquez holds far more upside for fantasy managers whether he starts or comes off the bench.

Larsson continues to fill the void left by the injured Tyler Herro. Unfortunately, the second-year wing has not been consistent enough to merit being rostered in a higher percentage of fantasy leagues. Hopefully, Larsson can build on Thursday’s production when the Heat host the Bulls on Saturday and Sunday. Given the matchup, he’s worth considering in deep leagues but is not a must-stream player.

Jaquez has been close to a top-100 player in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks, as he continues to provide solid all-around stat lines. Thursday’s double-double was his fifth of the season and first since December 29, with the third-year wing also providing solid assist and steal numbers. Despite coming off the bench, Jaquez is worth a look in some 12-team leagues, especially with Tyler Herro (ribs) out.

After recording two 30-point games in his first four appearances in January, Powell’s offensive output has tailed off somewhat. He’s scored 20 or more in six of his last ten games, and while that isn’t necessarily bad, fantasy managers may have been hoping for more. Especially when factoring in how productive Powell was to begin the season, and Tyler Herro being out with a rib injury.

Adebayo has been on a roll since the Heat’s January 13 win over the Suns. A 20-point scorer in nine of his last ten outings, the 6-foot-9 center has provided top-20 per-game value in nine-cat formats over the past three weeks, according to Basketball Monster. This is the version of Adebayo that many fantasy managers hoped to get at the beginning of the season. The Heat end Week 15 with a home back-to-back on Saturday and Sunday against the Bulls.

Williams missed Portland’s last game, which was part of a back-to-back. There is a chance he is sidelined against New York, and with Duop Reath (foot) ruled out for the remainder of the year, Yang Hansen would be in line for the backup center minutes. With Williams out on Tuesday, Hansen only played 12 minutes.

Due to a right foot injury, Reath has been out since January 18. According to the Trail Blazers, he has undergone season-ending surgery after imaging revealed a stress fracture. Having averaged 8.2 minutes in his 32 appearances, Reath’s absence will be most impactful on fellow reserve Yang Hansen. However, while he is now the unquestioned third center on the depth chart, Hansen is unlikely to get the minutes needed to affect fantasy basketball.

Henderson has missed the first 48 games of the season with a torn left hamstring, but he is now in the final stages of his recovery. The 3rd overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft will need a couple more weeks to adjust to the pace and physicality of a full-contact practice before we takes the court, but a mid-February return seems likely.

Fontecchio was one of several Heat players to find success on the offensive end. In only 20 minutes off the bench, he made the most of his limited opportunities and shot well from the floor, leading him to finish as Miami’s leading scorer off the bench. The fourth-year forward’s biggest contributions came from beyond the arc, where he set a new season high in makes. He’s now scored in double figures in six of the last seven games and has consistently contributed from beyond the arc and as a rebounder over that time.

Adebayo logged a fairly balanced performance in Wednesday’s loss. He recorded at least 20 points for the fifth straight game, while also securing double-digit rebounds for the third time during that stretch. Adebayo’s passing was also exceptional against the Magic, leading to a new season-high in assists. Add in his four three-pointers, and you get one of his most well-rounded performances in quite some time. He’ll have a chance to extend his streak of 20-point games to six when the Heat face the Bulls on Thursday.

Powell was limited to just 28 minutes in the loss, but even in his more limited action, he managed to finish as one of Miami’s top scorers. Efficient shooting allowed him to reach 20 points for the first time in three games. However, the first-year Heat guard didn’t make many other contributions aside from his scoring. His fantasy value was almost exclusively tied to his scoring on Wednesday, which is the risk fantasy managers run with having Powell on their roster. Yet, he’s always capable of big scoring performances and isn’t someone you want on your bench.

Powell is good to go for Wednesday’s game despite dealing with a back injury. The veteran guard has been Miami’s top leading scorer in his first year with the team, currently averaging a career-high in points. His presence will give the Heat a greater chance to pull off a third straight win. They’re currently seventh in the Eastern Conference standings, and just one game above the Magic, who they face on Wednesday.

Sharpe has been a consistent scorer for Portland for most of the season. Coming off a rough performance on Monday, where he was held to nine points, Sharpe responded with his first 30-point game since mid-December. The steals have been there consistently as well, which has allowed him to produce top-50 value in nine-category leagues over the past two weeks. He’ll look to stay hot in New York on Friday.

Clingan was a beast on the glass in this game. It wasn’t enough to get a win, but he hauled in a career-high 13 offensive rebounds. Unfortunately, he was inefficient as a scorer and wasn’t able to turn all the extra possessions into a scoring advantage. Still, it was an impressive outing for Clingan, and he now has at least 15 rebounds in four of his last five games. He’ll look to keep that going in New York on Friday.

Following a two-game absence with a back strain, Avdija returned to the lineup against his former team. He wasn’t as dominant as he has been for most of the season, but he had his highest rebounding total since November when he grabbed a season-high 19 boards. This was an inefficient outing, but it was good to have him back out on the floor. He’ll look to get back on track against the Knicks on Friday.

Grant’s point total was boosted by a 10-of-15 night at the foul line, with the 15 attempts being the most in a game for him since he put up 19 in a November 24 win over the Bucks. However, after an excellent start to the season, Grant’s fantasy value has slipped since he returned from an Achilles injury that sidelined him for 14 games. The Trail Blazers’ forward is ranked outside the top-200 in eight- and nine-cat formats since returning on January 15. Like Jrue Holiday, Grant’s minutes are being restricted, but he has logged 27 minutes in each of his last two appearances.

Of the 13 games that Portland has played in January, Camara has reached double figures in 11 of them. And his season average of 13.1 points per game is a career-high for the third-year forward, who finished a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line on Monday. Over the past two weeks, Camara has shot 49.3 percent from the field, providing top-100 per-game value in eight- and nine-cat formats.

Playing in Boston for the first time since being traded to Portland this past offseason, Holiday received a hero’s welcome on Monday. And while his playing time remains restricted, the veteran guard recorded a complete stat line in 24 minutes of action. Since returning from a strained calf, Holiday’s most significant issues with his fantasy value have been his minutes and foul shooting. Over the past two weeks, he’s shot 57.1 percent from the line on 1.2 attempts per game. However, there shouldn’t be too much concern, given he’s making 81.3 percent of his attempts on the season.

After reaching double figures in each of Portland’s first four games of 2026, Clingan has done so just three times in the last nine. The second-year center failed to do so on Monday, but he offered excellent production in the rebound and blocked shot categories. Despite the decreased scoring output, Clingan’s fantasy value hasn’t suffered too much because of what he brings to the table in other areas. Tuesday’s game against the Wizards may prove to be a better matchup for the 7-foot-2 pivot.

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.

Clingan made the most of his 29 minutes of game action. He pulled down at least 15 rebounds for the fifth time already in January and made a three-pointer in his fourth straight game. The second-year center also set a new season-high in steals, bringing the defensive production despite not amassing any blocked shots.

Sharpe was active on the offensive end on Friday. Without Deni Avdija (back), his shot volume was high, but he finished with fewer points than field-goal attempts. However, the fourth-year guard got on the glass and also made contributions as a passer to round out his solid overall performance.
