Dru Smith - Notches six points Smith notched six points (3-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds, five assists and one steal over 20 minutes during Thursday's 107-101 loss to San Antonio.

Jaime Jaquez Jr. - Regresses in reserve role Jaquez provided six points (2-8 FG, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds and six assists over 34 minutes during Thursday's 107-101 loss to the Spurs.
Impact Although Jaquez turned in decent secondary totals, he finished with his first single-digit scoring total of the season in the defeat. He regressed despite recording his highest minute total of the season, indicating that his floor might not be as high as originally thought. He's been a fantasy darling in winning DFS lineups this season, and a larger sample size is needed from the UCLA product before he's off the board completely.

Andrew Wiggins - Los 24 points in loss Wiggins provided 24 points (11-18 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 0-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists and two steals over 35 minutes during Thursday's 107-101 loss to the Spurs.
Impact Norman Powell's (groin) absence has resulted in a nice boost for Wiggins, who's averaged 22.5 points over the last two games. In order for Miami to maximize its potential, Wiggins needs to replicate this kind of production once Powell returns to the starting five. Wiggins' defensive acumen is never in question, and he's exhibiting decent rebound and steal totals to begin the season.
OCTOBER 31 • ROTOWIRE
Bam Adebayo - Leads team with 31/10 double-double Adebayo supplied 31 points (12-27 FG, 4-13 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 37 minutes during Thursday's 107-101 loss to the Spurs.
Impact Adebayo turned in his third double-double of the season during the defeat, and it appears that the big man is the team's most dependable producer in the early stages of the season. Norman Powell's (groin) absence has forced all of the starters to pitch in, but the biggest change for the veteran is his gradual shift away from the primary center role. Kel'el Ware has taken over at the five, and it's allowed Adebayo to show off his abilities as a primary scorer. Adebayo's biggest boost comes from beyond the arc, where he's averaging a career-high 5.8 attempts per game and is converting at a 41.3 percent clip.
