Impact Strus proved again Wednesday that he is one the league's most efficient three-point shooters, as he shot 41.0 percent from deep last season. Despite moving back to the bench, he played the fifth most minutes on the team. If Strus can continue to rebound the ball well and maintain his playing time, he will be a sleeper option in fantasy.

Continues strong outside shooting Strus posted 11 points (3-8 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and two assists in 17 minutes during Thursday's 120-103 preseason win over the Pelicans.

Impact Strus has been moved back to the Heat's bench, despite his hot shooting. If this holds, Tyler Herro will likely be inserted into the starting lineup. Regardless of Strus's role, he will be an underrated play for fantasy owners in Roto leagues that want to boost their three-point percentages and makes.

Red hot in preseason win Strus tallied 24 points (7-14 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal over 24 minutes in Monday's preseason 118-110 win over Houston.

Impact Strus was on fire in the first half, scoring 21 points and knocking down four shots from deep. He slowed down after halftime but still led Miami with 24 points and five triples. The sharpshooter emerged as a major weapon for the Heat last season, averaging career-best marks of 10.6 points and 2.7 three-pointers while shooting 41 percent from beyond the arc. His limited skill set makes him a borderline roster option in fantasy, but Monday's performance was a reminder of how prolific he can be when he gets hot from deep.
