Davion

Mitchell

Miami’s starting five will get another makeover Thursday for the final game before the All-Star break. With so many key players sidelined, expect this starting five to play big minutes.

Robinson will be available to play after missing Wednesday’s game against the Thunder. Davion Mitchell has started the last two games for Miami, but he could return to the bench with Robinson back. If Mitchell continues to start, Alec Burks will lose out on minutes with Robinson back.

Rozier will miss a second straight game with an illness and Love is handling a personal issue. Davion Mitchell will likely be highly involved without Rozier available and Love’s absence shouldn’t affect fantasy basketball.

Mitchell made his second straight start for the Heat with Terry Rozier and Duncan Robinson out due to illness. He shot the ball well, making 60 percent of his attempts, but the overall stat line was modest. Mitchell’s offered limited defensive production and assists since arriving in Miami, so there hasn’t been much to gain from streaming him. However, if Rozier remains out for Thursday’s game against the Mavericks, “Off Night” will be worth a roll of the dice on a five-game night in the Association.

Multiple Heat players have been dealing with an illness recently, with Rozier and Robinson not well enough to play Wednesday night. Davion Mitchell and Alec Burks could remain in the starting lineup, especially if Tyler Herro (illness) is also out. Mitchell and Burks will be worth streaming, even if their fantasy upsides are limited.

There appears to be an illness going through the Heat locker room. Robinson has been ruled out along with Terry Rozier, and Tyler Herro is a game-time decision. Davion Mitchell and Alec Burks could play even more minutes with the Heat down two guards already.

Terry Rozier and Duncan Robinson are dealing with illnesses and are questionable against the Thunder. Davion Mitchell and Alec Burks started on Monday and may play even more minutes on Wednesday with Tyler Herro and Jaime Jaquez Jr. also dealing with the illness that is making its way through the Heat’s guard rotation.

Herro missed Monday’s matchup with Boston, which allowed Davion Mitchell to slide into the starting lineup in his first game with Miami. They missed Herro dearly and scored a season-low 85 points. Mitchell may get another start if Herro remains out, but he only had four points, three rebounds and four assists in 23 minutes.

Mitchell was moved to Miami at the trade deadline in a deal that sent P.J. Tucker to the Raptors, along with a second-round pick. With Tyler Herro (illness) sidelined against Boston, Mitchell was immediately thrust into the starting lineup. Unsurprisingly, the results weren’t great. Mitchell will be a serviceable reserve guard for Miami, especially on the defensive end. In Toronto, he was able to provide decent assist numbers as a starter, but that wasn’t the case in this game. Managers shouldn’t feel the need to stream him if he gets another start.

With Tyler Herro (illness) sidelined, Mitchell will get the starting nod at point guard in his debut for Miami. Burks and Wiggins will also enter the starting unit, which will send Duncan Robinson and Haywood Highsmith to the bench. Burks has been with the Heat all season, but this will be his first start for them. Wiggins is also making his Miami debut.
