| Thu Mar 12 | 19:04 | Tyler Herro Misses Second Straight Game |
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (quadriceps) will not take the floor on Thursday against the Milwaukee Bucks. The team has ruled him out after Herro was listed as questionable on the initial injury report and was considered a game-time decision. Kasparas Jakucionis took Herro's spot in the starting lineup on Tuesday against Washington and appears poised to start again. The 19-year-old rookie has averaged 6.7 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 3.9 assists across his first 10 career starts. |

| Thu Mar 12 | 07:53 | Tyler Herro Iffy for Thursday |
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (quadriceps) is questionable for Thursday's matchup with the Milwaukee Bucks. After shaking off a rib injury, Herro is dealing with a sore left quadriceps and exited the lineup for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards. In his absence, Kasparas Jakucionis received the starting nod, contributing five points, five rebounds, six assists, one steal, and one block in 30 minutes. With Andrew Wiggins (toe) and Norman Powell (groin) also out, Miami's offense centered around Bam Adebayo, who had a historic 83-point outing. Due to the injury situation, players like Jaime Jaquez Jr. and Pelle Larsson are also positioned to play larger roles on the offensive end. |

| Tue Mar 10 | 18:57 | Tyler Herro is Ruled Out for Tuesday's Game |
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (quad) has been downgraded to out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Washington Wizards. He was a late addition to the injury report due to a quad issue that will ultimately force him to miss this game. His absence should mean increased playing time for Pelle Larsson, Jaime Jaquez Jr., and Myron Gardner. Among the three players, Jaquez is the best fantasy option, with the two others being viewed as possible deep league options. |

| Tue Mar 10 | 15:38 | Tyler Herro Downgraded to Questionable Tuesday Against Washington |
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (quad) was a late addition to the injury report for Tuesday's game, which is never a good sign for a player's availability. He has missed time this season with a variety of ailments, and he is now dealing with quad soreness. He played 30 minutes on Sunday against the Pistons and racked up 25 points in Miami's win. Before that, he lit up the Hornets for 33 points, nine assists, and nine rebounds on Friday. He's been rolling and has a great matchup against Washington if he's at 100%, but if he is unable to give it a go, Pelle Larsson and Jaime Jaquez could be more involved for the Heat. If that happens, both would bring high ceilings as streaming or DFS plays. |

| Sat Feb 21 | 18:51 | Tyler Herro is Available to Play on Saturday |
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (ribs) is available to play ahead of Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. As expected, Herro has been cleared to play after making his return to the court on Friday. It was unclear if Herro would play in both games of the back-to-back set following a 15-game absence due to a rib injury. He finished with 24 points, four rebounds, and three assists across 23 minutes of action. The assumption is Herro will have a similar workload once again while he works his way back to full speed. Fantasy managers in season-long formats can get Herro active on Saturday. |

| Fri Feb 20 | 18:38 | Tyler Herro to Make his Return on Friday |
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (ribs) is available to play ahead of Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. As expected, Herro will suit up after missing the last 15 games due to a right rib injury. He hasn't suited up for a game since mid-January, so fantasy managers should expect Herro to have a minutes limit. There is no word on how many minutes he'll play, so DFS players should be cautious. Fantasy managers in season-long formats can go ahead and get Herro active on Friday. It'll be interesting to see if he plays during the second leg of the back-to-back set on Saturday. For now, Herro is safe for Friday's slate, but fantasy managers should check back on Saturday for another update. |

| Wed Feb 18 | 20:15 | Tyler Herro Expected to Practice Thursday |
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (ribs) is expected to practice Thursday as he works toward a return from a right costochondral injury that has sidelined him for 15 straight games. He is averaging 25.3 usage in 32.0 minutes this season and could be listed as questionable for Friday's matchup in Atlanta depending on how he responds. Until he is cleared, Kasparas Jakucionis, Myron Gardner, and Simone Fontecchio should continue seeing added run, though all remain fringe fantasy options. Herro's return would tighten the rotation and restore primary scoring duties alongside Bam Adebayo and Norman Powell. |

| Tue Feb 10 | 20:53 | Tyler Herro Ruled Out for 15th Straight Game |
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (ribs) won't play on Wednesday against the New Orleans Pelicans. He has been ruled out for a 15th straight game due to a right costochondral injury to the ribs. Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra noted on Monday that Herro is "making progress." However, it remains unclear when he can suit up again. Miami also won't have Norman Powell (back) and Pelle Larsson (forearm) on Wednesday, while Andrew Wiggins (toe) is listed as questionable. In this situation, the team must lean more on Jaime Jaquez Jr., Kasparas Jakucionis, and Dru Smith. |

| Thu Feb 5 | 17:39 | Tyler Herro Not Traveling With Heat on Road Trip |
According to Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel, Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (ribs) will not travel with the team during an upcoming two-game road trip. Herro has missed 11 straight contests due to a costochondral rib injury, and there have been no encouraging updates since he exited the lineup in mid-January. Pelle Larsson and Jaime Jaquez Jr. should continue to be the primary beneficiaries during Herro's extended absence. |

| Tue Feb 3 | 08:07 | Tyler Herro Misses 11th Straight Game |
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (ribs) is not ready to return to action and will miss an 11th straight game on Tuesday against the Atlanta Hawks. Herro is dealing with a costochondral injury to his ribs, and there haven't been any updates on him since he departed the lineup in mid-January. Fortunately for Miami, Davion Mitchell was back in the lineup on Sunday against the Chicago Bulls, giving the backcourt a slight boost. Pelle Larrson has enjoyed a regular starting role during Herro's absence, producing back-to-back 20-point performances. He does plenty of work in other areas as well, making Larsson an attractive fantasy target. |

| Sat Jan 31 | 09:38 | Tyler Herro Remains Sidelined Saturday vs. Bulls |
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (ribs) will not play Saturday against Chicago, extending his absence to nine straight games. He has continued to be ruled out well ahead of tipoff, a pattern that points to a week-to-week situation and makes him doubtful for Sunday's rematch. Herro's continued absence, paired with Norman Powell (personal) being out and Davion Mitchell (shoulder) trending doubtful, keeps Miami's rotation thin. Jaime Jaquez Jr. has responded with expanded minutes and delivered 19 points, 10 rebounds, and six assists on Friday. Pelle Larsson and Dru Smith remain viable deep-league streamers handling secondary playmaking duties. |

| Thu Jan 29 | 19:28 | Tyler Herro, Davion Mitchell Remain Out Thursday |
Miami Heat guards Tyler Herro (ribs) and Davion Mitchell (shoulder) won't be in action against the Chicago Bulls on Thursday. Due to a rib issue, Herro will sit out an eighth consecutive game, while Mitchell must skip his fifth straight contest with a shoulder injury. As a result of the backcourt injuries, Kasparas Jakucionis has recently filled in as the starting point guard. After initially showing promise, the rookie struggled in Wednesday's loss to the Orlando Magic, registering two points, one assist, two steals, and two turnovers in 20 minutes. Dru Smith outperformed Jakucionis off the bench with 13 points, three rebounds, and seven assists in 22 minutes, potentially earning himself a larger role for Thursday's game. |

| Wed Jan 28 | 07:53 | Tyler Herro Remains Out Wednesday |
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (ribs) won't play against the Orlando Magic on Wednesday, missing his seventh straight game. The Heat have two back-to-backs scheduled this week, meaning Herro could miss several more games. Miami is currently dealing with other injury issues as well, giving Pelle Larsson, Dru Smith, Jaime Jaquez Jr., and Kasparas Jakucionis additional playing opportunities. The team has a good fantasy matchup on Wednesday against a mediocre defensive team. |

| Tue Jan 20 | 06:52 | Tyler Herro Out Indefinitely With Ribs Issue |
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (ribs) is out indefinitely with a costochondral issue with his ribs. He has missed two games and isn't expected to play during the team's current road trip, which has four more stops this week. Pelle Larsson has been starting during Herro's absence, though his fantasy production can fluctuate. In Monday's loss to the Golden State Warriors, Larsson had nine points, five rebounds, and three assists in 28 minutes. Simone Fontecchio's role has also grown in recent games, with the Italian posting back-to-back 13-point games. |

| Sun Jan 18 | 18:50 | Tyler Herro Not Traveling with Team |
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (rib) is not traveling with the team and has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Herro will miss his second straight game due to a rib contusion, which could keep him out much longer. Herro will undergo an MRI, so fantasy managers should get a better timetable soon. The Heat play the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday; it seems unlikely that Herro will be ready for that one. Pelle Larsson figures to draw another start, but his playing time could be limited with Davion Mitchell (shoulder) probable for that game. Larsson finished with 16 points and three rebounds during Saturday's game. He'll offer some low-end streaming appeal while Herro is out. |

| Sat Jan 17 | 18:38 | Tyler Herro Out Saturday Night |
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (toe, ribs) won't play in Saturday's contest against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Miami has downgraded Herro from questionable to out, leaving the team without a second starter. Davion Mitchell (shoulder) also won't play on Saturday night. Pelle Larsson moved into the starting unit as Mitchell's replacement on Thursday against the Boston Celtics, and Kasparas Jakucionis could take over Herro's spot on Saturday. However, Kel'el Ware is also an option to start, having recently enjoyed a long stretch in the starting lineup as Herro's replacement. |

| Fri Jan 16 | 20:11 | Tyler Herro Questionable to Play Saturday |
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (toe, ribs) is listed as questionable for Saturday's contest against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Recently, Herro returned from a toe injury, and he is now also dealing with a rib contusion. Miami's backcourt is already missing Davion Mitchell (shoulder). As a result, Kasparas Jakucionis could jump into the first unit on Saturday. The Lithuanian rookie contributed 12 points and eight assists in a bench role on Thursday night against the Boston Celtics. There are also additional minutes available for Dru Smith and Pelle Larsson, who moved to the starting lineup on Thursday. |

| Sun Jan 11 | 18:56 | Tyler Herro to Suit Up on Sunday |
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (toe, ribs) has been cleared to suit up for Sunday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Herro is working through a pair of injuries, but will play through them during the second leg of the back-to-back on Sunday. It didn't seem to impact him on Saturday when he dropped 21 points, seven rebounds, and four assists across 32 minutes of action. Herro could be asked to take on a larger role offensively with Norman Powell (back) ruled out for this contest. Fantasy managers in season-long formats can go ahead and get Herro active ahead of tip-off. Herro is also looking like an elite DFS option with the Heat missing a key shooter in Powell for Sunday's game. |

| Tue Jan 6 | 17:33 | Tyler Herro Active Tuesday |
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (toe) is set to suit up for Tuesday's matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves. Herro has been out of action for about a month due to a toe injury. He was available for Sunday's game against the Pelicans, but he didn't see any playing time. With Herro back in the mix, Andrew Wiggins and Norman Powell could see fewer scoring opportunities than they did in December. While Kel'el Ware, Nikola Jovic, and Pelle Larsson's expanded roles recently could be reduced. |

| Tue Jan 6 | 08:44 | Tyler Herro Questionable to Face Timberwolves |
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (toe) is considered questionable for Tuesday's tilt against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He has missed nearly a month of action with a toe injury. For Sunday's clash against the New Orleans Pelicans, Herro was listed as available, but he didn't take the court. Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra labeled the star guard as day-to-day on Sunday. Once Herro returns, Kel'el Ware will probably move to the bench, and Andrew Wiggins and Norman Powell could see fewer offensive opportunities. At the same time, Nikola Jovic and Pelle Larsson may have their roles reduced in the rotation. |
