Iffy to play Wednesday Williams (illness) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Hawks.

Heat surge past the Nets 126-110 as Brooklyn's skid reaches 10

Tyler Herro scored 25 points, Bam Adebayo added 21 and the Miami Heat beat Brooklyn 126-110, sending the Nets to their 10th consecutive loss

Scores 16 despite shooting woes Williams recorded 16 points (3-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 8-9 FT), one rebound, two assists and two steals in 23 minutes during Tuesday's 124-98 loss to the Heat.

Impact The fact that Williams went 8-for-9 from the charity stripe salvaged his fantasy performance in a game where he went 3-for-10 from the floor, including 1-for-5 in two-pointers. This was the first time Williams scored in double digits since the end of the All-Star break, and his lack of consistency on a game-to-game basis, both in terms of his role and production, limits his fantasy upside considerably. If he continues to come off the bench, he's not a player worth targeting even as a streaming alternative.
