The NBA has postponed Thursday’s game between the Heat and Bulls.

Due to condensation on the court, the Heat-Bulls game in Chicago has been postponed. No official makeup date has been announced yet, but that will be announced in the coming days. Both teams return to action on Saturday, with the Heat visiting the Pacers and the Bulls hosting the Mavericks.
Tyler Herro

MIA Guard #14

Davion Mitchell, Tyler Herro, Norman Powell, Andrew Wiggins and Bam Adebayo will start Thursday’s game against the Bulls.

After coming off the bench in his first game back from a right great toe injury, Herro has returned to the starting lineup. As a result, Kel’el Ware will come off the bench. While his ceiling is slightly lower with the demotion, Ware should still be rostered in most leagues.
Jaime Jaquez

MIA Guard #11

Jaime Jaquez Jr. (ankle) is available for Thursday’s game against the Bulls.

Jaquez has missed Miami’s last two games with a sprained ankle, robbing the Heat of a key reserve. His return affects Nikola Jović and Pelle Larsson, as their opportunities stand to decrease with Miami back to full strength.
Jaime Jaquez

MIA Guard #11

Jaime Jaquez Jr. (ankle) has been upgraded to probable for Thursday’s game against the Bulls.

Jaquez Jr. has missed the last two games with an injury but seems on track to return tonight. With Tyler Herro (toe) now also back, it’s likely that Nikola Jović, who has been playing well, will see his minutes and usage reduced.
Jaime Jaquez

MIA Guard #11

Jaime Jaquez Jr. (ankle) is questionable for Thursday’s game against the Bulls.

Jaquez has missed Miami’s last two games with a sprained right ankle. His status ahead of Tuesday’s loss to Miami shifted from “out” to “questionable” and finally back to “out.” The good news is that he’s questionable on the initial injury report for Thursday night. If Jaquez plays, Nikola Jović and Pelle Larsson stand to lose out on minutes, especially with Tyler Herro back in the fold.
Tyler Herro

MIA Guard #14

Tyler Herro piled up 17 points (7-of-15 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), nine rebounds and three assists over 28 minutes in Tuesday’s lopsided defeat at the hands of the Timberwolves.

Herro looked like his usual self coming off the bench in this one following an 11-game absence recovering from a right toe injury. He shot the ball well overall but was just 1-of-4 from three-point range in his first game action since December 9. It was an off night for Miami overall as they shot just 35.7 percent from the floor as a team and failed to break the century mark. It’s been a frustrating season for Herro, and fantasy managers, as injuries have limited to just seven games after he played 77 of 82 last year. He shouldn’t have too many restrictions from a minutes standpoint moving forward.
Norman Powell

MIA Guard #24

Norman Powell posted 21 points (9-of-17 FGs, 0-of-1 FTs), three rebounds and four assists over 30 minutes in Tuesday’s one-sided loss to the Timberwolves.

Powell knocked down a pair of three-pointers to open the contest but never really got going afterwards as Miami went ice-cold from the floor in the second half and fell behind by nearly 30 points by the middle of the fourth quarter. The 32-year-old has been a revelation for fantasy managers in his Heat debut, averaging 24.3 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.2 blocks through 32 games. He’s scored at least 21 points in seven consecutive games since December 26.
Jaime Jaquez

MIA Guard #11

Jaime Jaquez Jr. (ankle) is out for Tuesday’s matchup with the Timberwolves.

The roller coaster ride is at an end. Jaquez Jr. was listed as out on Monday afternoon before getting upgraded to questionable on Monday evening. He’s now listed as out, and fantasy managers should expect more run for Nikola Jović and Pelle Larsson.
Tyler Herro

MIA Guard #14

Tyler Herro (toe) has been upgraded to available for Tuesday’s matchup with Minnesota.

Herro was available on Sunday, but he didn’t take the court. According to Heat reporter Ira Winderman, Herro plans to play against the Timberwolves, which will be his first taste of game action since December 9. Fantasy managers can get him into lineups, but they should temper expectations for his first game back.
Jaime Jaquez

MIA Guard #11

Jaime Jaquez Jr. (ankle) is questionable to play against the Timberwolves on Tuesday.

Jaquez was initially ruled out for this game, which would’ve been a second consecutive absence for him. However, he has now been upgraded, which is a good indicator that he may be able to give it a go. He’ll return to playing his typical significant reserve role if he is able to suit up.
