Pelle Larsson - Available for Friday Larsson (finger) is available for Friday's game against the Hawks.

Impact Coming out of the All-Star break, Larsson is primed to finish a three-game absence. With Tyler Herro (ribs) expected to make his long-awaited return, fewer minutes could be needed from Larsson. Over his last eight outings, Larsson has averaged 14.1 points, 5.5 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.1 steals in 27.6 minutes per game.

Keshad Johnson - Questionable for Friday Johnson is questionable for Friday's game against the Hawks with left calf soreness.

Impact Johnson is typically not a rotation player for Miami, so his status won't make a big impact in fantasy hoops.

Andrew Wiggins - Available for Friday Wiggins (toe) is available for Friday's game against the Hawks.

Impact Wiggins sat out Miami's last contest before the All-Star break due to left toe inflammation, but he's ready to roll for Friday and could force Kel'el Ware into a lesser role. Wiggins has scored in double figures in 14 consecutive games, averaging 16.4 points, 5.4 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.1 steals in 30.3 minutes per contest during this stretch.

Norman Powell - Iffy for Friday Powell is questionable for Friday's game against the Hawks with lower back tightness.

Impact Powell missed Miami's final two games before the All-Star break due to lower-back tightness, but he did play 14 minutes Sunday at All-Star weekend. He's still day-to-day, however, and it sounds like he could get a maintenance day at some point during this back-to-back set.

Tyler Herro - Probable for Friday Herro (ribs) is probable for Friday's game against the Hawks.

Impact Presumably, Herro responded well to practice on Thursday. Herro has missed the past 15 games for Miami, so it's fair to expect restrictions in his first game back. It's worth mentioning that Thursday's game is the front end of a back-to-back set, so it will be interesting to see if a maintenance day is considered Friday.

Tyler Herro - Close to returning Herro (ribs) is expected to practice Thursday, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Herro has been out for 15 straight games due to a right costochondral injury to his ribs, but he's finally nearing a return to game action. More light on the star guard's status should arrive either following the session or when Miami releases its next official injury report Thursday, but Herro can be tentatively labeled as questionable for Friday's contest in Atlanta for now. His eventual presence could push Kasparas Jakucionis out of the Heat's rotation entirely.
