Duncan

Robinson

Robinson, who did not travel with the team to begin Miami’s road trip, will miss a fifth-straight game on Wednesday. Alec Bucks has moved into the starting lineup, but he is only worth streaming in extremely deep leagues.

Burks is once again considered probable due to his lingering back issue. The probable tag suggests he will be cleared to play, and the veteran guard should get another start on Monday. With Andrew Wiggins and Duncan Robinson out, Burks is worth streaming in deep leagues when allowed to start.

Alec Burks and Pelle Larsson started for this duo against the 76ers on Saturday, and it appears that they will again to kick off a new week. Wiggins and Robinson will have a chance to return against the Celtics on Thursday.

Miami did not rule out Robinson for the remainder of the three-game trip, but he won’t be available to take on the 76ers on Saturday, which will be a third-straight absence for him. If Alec Burks is available, he’ll continue to start, though head coach Erik Spoelstra may have to turn to Terry Rozier or Jaime Jaquez Jr. if Burks is ruled out.

Robinson also missed Tuesday’s game against the Warriors with lower back pain. Alec Burks, who is available despite also dealing with a back issue, figures to start in Robinson’s place as he did in the previous game. Burks is merely a deep-league streamer.

Burks started for Robinson when he missed Miami’s latest win over Golden State and has a good chance to do so again if the sharpshooter is ruled out in a second straight contest. Jaime Jaquez Jr. could benefit if both wings are ruled out.

Robinson will not be available for Tuesday’s game due to lower back pain. While his absence does not significantly impact fantasy basketball, as he offers limited value outside of points and three-pointers, it will open up a spot in the Heat rotation. Haywood Highsmith, who logged 36 minutes on Sunday, should once again figure prominently in the lineup, while Jaime Jaquez Jr. should see his playing time increase out of necessity. Neither player has offered consistent fantasy value this season.

Robinson is dealing with lower back pain, hence his inclusion on the Heat injury report. This season, he has primarily been a specialist, providing value for managers needing points and three-pointers. If Robinson cannot play on Tuesday, Haywood Highsmith will pick up additional minutes after logging 36 off the bench on Sunday.

Robinson got off to a good start on Monday, shooting 3-of-5 from the field with two three-pointers. He finished with 22 points, his highest total since February 26. Robinson’s run of nine consecutive games in double figures ended on March 14, so it was good to see him get back on track after two poor outings. With the Heat’s lack of consistent scorers beyond Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo, they’ll need more nights like Monday from Robinson.

Kel’el Ware, available despite dealing with a knee injury, will come off the bench for the first time since January 19. Davion Mitchell is also moving to the bench, which means the ball will be in Tyler Herro’s hands even more than usual. With their moves into the starting lineup, Robinson and Jaquez will be more valuable in fantasy leagues.
