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.

LaVine did not play in Sunday’s loss to the Pistons, resulting in Nique Clifford moving into the starting lineup. The rookie played 33 minutes, finishing with 15 points, three rebounds, one assist, one block and two three-pointers. While not a must-stream player, Clifford will have value during the “silly season” based on where the Kings are in the Western Conference standings.

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.

Powell has played through lower back tightness for the last two games and appears set to do it again Sunday.

Monk was in line for more minutes off the bench Sunday once Zach LaVine (back) was ruled out. The 27-year-old guard played just 22 minutes in the Kings’ blowout loss at the hands of the Pistons, with the lopsided score keeping him from hitting a ceiling scenario. Monk still isn’t worth rostering in most fantasy leagues, but he flashed some of his potential Sunday.

Added to the Kings’ injury report late Saturday night, LaVine is now officially out for Sunday’s game in Detroit. When Sacramento played two games in late December without LaVine and Keegan Murray (ankle), Keon Ellis was inserted into the starting lineup. However, the fourth-year guard has picked up DNP-CDs in each of the Kings’ last five games. For that reason, Nique Clifford may be the more likely choice to start, but he should only be rostered in dynasty leagues.

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. After struggling in the first three games of the Heat’s west coast trip, Jović had one of his best games of the season on Saturday. He finished with his fourth 20-point game and first since December 29. With Ware already back in Miami, Jović will once again take on an expanded role on Sunday in Phoenix.

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. Tyler Herro’s absence hasn’t led to a groundswell of scoring opportunities for Wiggins, but that isn’t particularly surprising, given Wiggins’ production throughout the season. 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. He’s scored at least 25 points in each of the three games since, posting a double-double in each of the last two. 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.

Jakučionis took an inadvertent Ace Bailey elbow to the head while pursuing a rebound late in the fourth quarter, sending him to the floor immediately. The Heat rookie had to be helped back to the locker room by teammates Bam Adebayo and Norman Powell. Jakučionis finished with 12 points, five rebounds, one assist and two three-pointers in 17 minutes.

The Kings starters weren’t getting the job done in this game, and head coach Doug Christie quickly turned to the reserves. That allowed Schröder to have his first 20-point game in over a month. Schröder has been a solid reserve for the Kings this year, but that hasn’t been enough for him to be worth rostering in most fantasy formats. Still, he’s more than capable of producing, as he reminded us in this game.

Sabonis’ first three games back after an extended absence were rather quiet. His minutes were limited and so was his production. However, he still come off the bench in this game, but he was far more productive in 31 minutes as a reserve in this game.

Jakučionis got the starting nod with Davion Mitchell (shoulder) sidelined. That wasn’t surprising since he recently started in place of Mitchell when he was out.

If Mitchell remains out against the Jazz on Saturday, it likely won’t be worth streaming Jakučionis.

Powell was downgraded from probable to questionable earlier in the day, which can be an indicator that a player is trending towards sitting out. However, that won’t be the case here. Powell will continue to play his typical role, where he’s scored at least 20 points in four of his last five games.

Including Thursday’s game against the Trail Blazers, Ware has missed Miami’s last two games with a strained left hamstring. With the 7-footer returning to Miami to undergo further treatment, the expectation is that he will miss at least the remainder of the road trip, which concludes with a Saturday/Sunday back-to-back against the Jazz and Suns. With Ware unavailable, the Heat will have to go small when starting center Bam Adebayo isn’t on the floor, likely resulting in more minutes for Nikola Jović and Simone Fontecchio.

While Monk still hasn’t reached the point where he can be considered in some 12-team leagues, the good news is that he’s getting consistent rotation minutes. He’s played at least 19 minutes in seven of his last eight appearances, a stretch in which Monk’s shot 50.6 percent from the field. Unfortunately, there hasn’t been much defensive production, which limits Monk’s fantasy potential. For whatever reason, Kings head coach Doug Christie has essentially decided that only one of Monk or Keon Ellis (DNP-CD) can be in the rotation on any given night. It has been Monk’s turn recently, but that could change at any time.

Since scoring 20 points in each of his first two games back after being sidelined by a sprained ankle, LaVine has just one 20-point effort over his last eight appearances. Since returning, the veteran wing has been a ninth-round player in eight- and nine-cat formats.

Westbrook led the Kings in scoring on Wednesday, but this was also his first game with three assists or fewer in over two weeks.
