Miami Heat News and Rumors - NBA

Pelle Larsson - Starting sans Powell Larsson is in the Heat's starting lineup against the Thunder on Sunday.

Impact Norman Powell will not play Sunday due to lower back soreness, so Larsson will make his 19th start of the regular season (and first since Dec. 27 against the Pacers). As a starter this season, Larsson is averaging 11.9 points, 4.4 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 1.3 threes over 26.8 minutes per game.

Norman Powell - Ruled out Sunday Powell (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Thunder.

Impact Powell was an extremely late addition to the injury report due to lower-back soreness, and he'll miss his first game since Dec. 3. His next opportunity to play will come Tuesday against the Suns. With the veteran swingman sidelined, Pelle Larsson will enter the Heat's starting five, while Jaime Jaquez and Nikola Jovic are candidates for increased minutes off the bench.

Tyler Herro - Cleared to play Sunday Herro (toe/ribs) is available for Sunday's game against the Thunder.

Impact Herro is working through a right big toe injury and rib contusion, but he has been cleared in both games of the Heat's weekend back-to-back set. He registered 21 points, seven rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block over 32 minutes during Miami's 123-99 loss to Indiana on Saturday.

Norman Powell - Questionable to play Sunday Powell is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Thunder due to lower back soreness.

Impact It's not a great sign to see Powell pop up on the injury report so close to Sunday's 7:00 p.m. ET tipoff, but he'll continue to be evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can play against Oklahoma City. Kel'el Ware, Jaime Jaquez and Nikola Jovic would be candidates to enter the Heat's starting lineup if Powell is not able to play.

Tyler Herro - Questionable to face OKC Herro (toe/rib) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Thunder.

Impact Herro is in jeopardy of missing the second half of Miami's back-to-back set due to a right big toe contusion and a right rib contusion. The star guard has appeared in two straight matchups following an 11-game absence due to the toe injury, averaging 19.0 points, 8.0 rebounds and 3.5 assists in 30.5 minutes per contest over that stretch. If Herro is ultimately ruled out, Pelle Larsson and Kel'el Ware are candidates to enter the starting five, while Dru Smith could also see a bump in minutes.

Norman Powell - Season-worst scoring effort Powell chipped in six points (2-12 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal across 22 minutes during Saturday's 123-99 loss to the Pacers.

Impact It was the first time all season Powell failed to score in double digits, and he didn't re-enter the ball after exiting late in the third quarter with the Heat down by 19 points. Prior to that disappointing performance, the veteran wing has delivered more than 20 points in seven straight games, averaging 26.4 points, 3.9 threes, 3.1 boards, 3.0 threes and 1.1 steals while shooting 52.9 percent from the floor and 47.4 percent from beyond the arc.

Tyler Herro - Drops team-high 21 in Indiana Herro closed with 21 points (8-19 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 32 minutes during Saturday's 123-99 loss to the Pacers.

Impact The 21 points led the Heat on the night, as only three of his teammates even scored in double digits. It was Herro's first start since Dec. 9, and just his second game back from a toe injury that cost him 11 contests. He's still looking for his rhythm from long range, having gone 2-for-12 on three-point attempts since getting back on the court, and on the season he's averaging 22.1 points, 5.8 boards, 2.6 assists, 2.1 threes and 0.9 steals in 31.5 minutes a game.

Jaime Jaquez Jr. - Puts up 16 points in return Jaquez (illness) registered 16 points (6-12 FG, 4-6 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and one steal across 25 minutes Saturday in the Heat's 123-99 loss to the Pacers.

Impact Jaquez was back in action after he had missed the Heat's previous two games due to a sprained right ankle before he was listed on the injury report with a stomach illness prior to Saturday's contest. The third-year forward was able to produce well in his sixth-man role, but he may not have a pathway to seeing much of an uptick in minutes now that the Heat are at full strength following Tyler Herro's recent return from a right big toe contusion. Jaquez still looks to be a roster-worthy option in most fantasy leagues, though his upside will be more limited while the Heat have all their key contributors available.
