Heat's Jimmy Butler: Considered probable for Thursday
Butler (right knee soreness) is probable to play Thursday versus Toronto.
Butler has suited up in three consecutive contests, averaging 19.7 points, 6.3 rebounds and 4.7 assists and 32.7 minutes per game over that span. His addition to Wednesday's injury report likely pertains more to maintenance at practice than an aggravation of any kind, but his status will need to be monitored.

Heat's Josh Richardson: Out at least one week
Richardson had an injection in his left heel Wednesday and will miss at least one week, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Richardson has struggled to stay healthy for Miami this season and will now miss at least two more games. He's been out of the rotation lately, so this setback for Richardson doesn't have many fantasy implications.

Heat's Kel'el Ware: Recalled by Miami
Miami recalled Ware from the G League's Sioux Falls Skyforce on Monday.
Ware played in Sunday's 114-112 G League loss to Grand Rapids, finishing with 20 points (9-14 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 0-1 FT), 10 rebounds, five assists, four blocks and two steals over 31 minutes. At the NBA level, however, Ware has played just 6.9 minutes per game across 10 contests.

Heat's Terry Rozier: Gathers season-high nine rebounds
Rozier produced 14 points (6-14 FG, 2-5 3Pt), nine rebounds, three assists and one block across 28 minutes during Sunday's 122-113 win over Cleveland.
Coming off a scoreless outing in 16 minutes during Saturday's win over the Suns, Rozier provided a lift with 14 points off the bench and crashed the boards for a season-high nine rebounds Sunday. In his last eight games since moving to the second unit, the veteran guard is averaging a modest 10.9 points, 2.9 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.9 three-pointers in 23.8 minutes per contest. Rozier is sinking 42.9 percent of his threes during this stretch, so the move to the bench appears to have aided his efficiency following a slow start the season; however, his counting stats will likely continue to take a hit with the decreased playing time.

Heat's Duncan Robinson: Another strong scoring effort
Robinson registered 23 points (7-11 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal over 28 minutes during Sunday's 122-113 victory over the Cavaliers.
After scoring 19 points in Saturday's win over the Suns, Robinson posted another strong scoring outing with 23 points and four three-pointers Sunday. In his last 11 contests (10 starts), the veteran sharpshooter is draining 41.9 percent of his shots from long distance while averaging 13.3 points, 2.9 assists, 2.5 rebounds and 2.8 threes in 26.2 minutes per game. As long as Robinson sticks with Miami's starting lineup over Terry Rozier at shooting guard, he'll remain a decent source of points and triples for fantasy managers in deep leagues.

Heat's Tyler Herro: Catches fire in third quarter
Herro chipped in 34 points (10-19 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 9-9 FT), six rebounds and seven assists over 36 minutes during Sunday's 122-113 win over the Cavaliers.
Herro caught fire in the third quarter Sunday, scoring 19 of his game-high 34 points during this period to help power the Heat past Cleveland. The star guard has been the top scoring option in Miami's offense throughout the first quarter of the season, and over his last 11 outings, he's averaging 24.0 points, 5.7 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 0.9 steals and 4.0 three-pointers in 36.0 minutes per game. Herro's impact may not be as pronounced in the defensive categories, but he should remain a stable source of points, threes and assists going forward while seeing an increase in ball-handling opportunities in the wake of Terry Rozier's move to a bench role.

Heat's Jimmy Butler: Will play Sunday
Butler (knee) is available for Sunday's game against Cleveland, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Butler will give it a go following a probable tag due to right knee soreness ahead of Sunday's matchup. The star forward has appeared in two consecutive outings since missing last Monday's loss to Boston, amassing 41 points, 16 rebounds, nine assists, two steals and two blocks across 63 total minutes.

Heat's Jimmy Butler: Likely to suit up Sunday
Butler is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Cavaliers due to right knee soreness.
Butler is likely to play in the second leg of the Heat's back-to-back set after posting 24 points (9-12 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 5-5 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and one block in 34 minutes during Saturday's win over the Suns. The star forward has appeared in four of Miami's last five matchups, during which he averaged 21.0 points, 5.8 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.3 steals across 32.8 minutes per contest.

Heat's Pelle Larsson: Won't play Sunday
Larsson (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Cleveland.
Larsson will miss both games in the Heat's back-to-back set after spraining his right ankle during Friday's practice. The rookie's next chance to suit up will come Thursday against the Raptors.

Heat's Duncan Robinson: Wakes up with 19 points
Robinson finished with 19 points (7-12 FG, 5-8 3Pt), two rebounds, four assists and one steal across 29 minutes during Saturday's 121-111 win over the Suns.
Miami's decision to move Terry Rozier to the second unit is still a bit of a head-scratcher, but Robinson proved his worthiness as a starter with a productive night of sharpshooting. The frequent three-point threat drilled five shots from downtown in the win and was a perfect complement to Tyler Herro in the backcourt. There's no sign of a switch from the current rotation, so Robinson deserves a closer look moving forward.
