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.

Upgraded to probable earlier Sunday, Wiggins is officially available for Sunday’s game. The Heat will stick with their starting five of Wiggins, Bam Adebayo, Norman Powell, Pelle Larsson and Kasparas Jakučionis.

Powell is good to go after being listed as probable earlier Sunday. He will once again take on a marquee role within the Heat starting lineup as the team continues to play without Tyler Herro.

Jakučionis left Saturday’s win over the Jazz after taking an elbow to the face in the fourth quarter. While the play looked a lot worse than it actually was, Jakučionis only suffered a facial contusion. With Davion Mitchell ruled out Sunday, he could be in line for some extra minutes against the Suns.

Powell has played through lower back tightness for the last two games and appears set to do it again Sunday. The 32-year-old shooting guard was upgraded to probable Sunday evening and is likely to suit up against the Suns. Jaime Jaquez Jr. and Simone Fontecchio could see extra minutes if Powell is unable to play.

Sunday’s game will be the third that Mitchell has missed with a sprained left shoulder. Kasparas Jakučionis (face) has started the last two, but he’s questionable. If the rookie can’t play, Dru Smith will likely be the next man up at point guard.

Wiggins is dealing with tightness in his left hamstring, but the probable tag is a good sign regarding his chances of playing in Phoenix. He hasn’t missed a game since November 24. If that changes on Sunday, Simone Fontecchio and Jaime Jaquez Jr. are the most likely options to start if Wiggins can’t play.

Powell has played through lower back tightness the last two games, most recently logging 25 minutes in Saturday’s blowout win over the Jazz. If he’s unable to play, Jaime Jaquez Jr. and Simone Fontecchio would take on added importance, with one likely moving into the starting five.

Mitchell has missed Miami’s last two games with a sprained left shoulder, and it appears likely that he’ll miss a third on Sunday. Kasparas Jakučionis has started the last two games, but he’s questionable with a facial contusion. If both are unable to play, Dru Smith will likely move into the starting lineup. He would be worth streaming in that scenario.

Jakučionis exited Saturday’s win over the Jazz after taking an Ace Bailey elbow to the face during the fourth quarter. The good news is that he’s listed as having a facial contusion; things looked worse for the rookie in the immediate aftermath, as he had to be helped back to the locker room. With Davion Mitchell (shoulder) doubtful, the Heat may have to turn to Dru Smith to fill in at point guard.

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. If Jakučionis and Davion Mitchell (shoulder) can’t play on Sunday in Phoenix, Dru Smith will have added importance.

Mitchell will miss a second consecutive game with a left shoulder injury. While Kasparas Jakučionis should get another start, he played 11 ineffective minutes in Thursday’s loss to the Trail Blazers. There’s no need to consider streaming Jakučionis.

Larsson was initially listed as probable with a finger injury to his left hand, so his availability was expected Saturday. The 24-year-old guard should continue to start with Tyler Herro (rib) out, but he hasn’t proven to be a worthwhile streamer yet.

Powell was on the injury report with a back injury for the second consecutive game, but the 32-year-old shooting guard won’t miss any time. Powell had 18 points in 28 minutes against the Trail Blazers on Thursday.

Larsson is managing a finger issue in his left hand, but that isn’t expected to keep him sidelined against Utah. He has been starting with Tyler Herro (rib) unavailable, which has led to limited production. Larsson should continue to start, but he isn’t an enticing streamer.

Mitchell missed Thursday’s game against the Trail Blazers, which allowed Kasparas Jakučionis to start in his place. Jakučionis should start again if Mitchell remains out, but he only played 11 unproductive minutes against Portland and shouldn’t be considered as a streaming option against Utah.

Powell was able to play through the back injury on Thursday, but he is back on the injury report because of it in this one. If he is unable to suit up, Dru Smith will likely slot into the starting unit if Powell is unavailable.

Adebayo has been awesome on offense recently, outside of the game against the Warriors last Saturday. Over his last six games, he has scored at least 20 points in five of those and is averaging 23.7 points, 8.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 1.2 steals and three triples per game. He set a new season high for scoring in this one and will look to stay hot against Utah on Saturday.

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. What was both surprising and frustrating was that he only played 11 minutes and was unproductive during his time on the floor. 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.

Mitchell’s absence opens up a spot in the starting lineup, with Kasparas Jakučionis being the most likely replacement. While risky, the rookie guard is worth streaming if he’s allowed to start.

Initially probable for Thursday’s game, Powell is trending toward not playing, according to the most recent update on his injury status. With Tyler Herro (ribs) out and Davion Mitchell (shoulder) doubtful, the Heat could be without its entire starting backcourt. Dru Smith, who did not play in Tuesday’s win over the Kings, would likely re-enter the rotation if Powell sits.

Mitchell was initially listed as questionable after playing on Monday, which was his first game back after a two-game absence. However, he’s now expected to be sidelined. Kasparas Jakučionis should return to the starting lineup, though his impact was limited in the increased role.
