Heat rest Jimmy Butler against Timberwolves; Kevin Love also sits with shoulder injury

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler was held out of the game at Minnesota to rest
OCTOBER 28, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Nikola Jovic - Starting Saturday Jovic is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Minnesota, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.
Impact Jovic is set to make his season debut for the Heat, and he gets the nod due to the absence of players such as Jimmy Butler (rest) and Kevin Love (shoulder). He's not expected to play a prominent role on offense despite the probable uptick in minutes.
OCTOBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jaime Jaquez Jr. - Starting against Wolves Jaquez is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Minnesota, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.
Impact The Heat will be thin in the frontcourt, so the rookie out of UCLA will make the first NBA start of his career. Jaquez has logged 27 total minutes off the bench in Miami's first two games, but he should be in line for a more prominent role in this game.
OCTOBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Caleb Martin - Still sidelined against Minnesota Martin (knee) is out for Saturday's game versus the Timberwolves.
Impact Martin will miss his second straight game Saturday due to a lingering knee injury. Jaime Jaquez and Duncan Robinson will likely see extended minutes in his absence. Martin's next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Milwaukee.
OCTOBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Kevin Love - Out Saturday Love will not play in Saturday's game against the Timberwolves due to a shoulder injury, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.
Impact Love presumably picked up the issue in Friday's 119-111 loss to the Celtics. With the Heat playing the second night of a back-to-back set, it is not surprising to see them exercise caution with the veteran big man. His next opportunity to suit up will come Monday in Milwaukee. In his absence, Thomas Bryant and Nikola Jovic could see an uptick in minutes.
OCTOBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Josh Richardson - Won't play Saturday Richardson (foot) is out for Saturday's game versus the Timberwolves.
Impact Richardson will miss his third straight game to start the season Saturday due to a foot injury. His next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Milwaukee.
OCTOBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jimmy Butler - Resting Saturday Butler will not play in Saturday's tilt against the Timberwolves for rest purposes, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.
Impact The Heat are playing the second night of a back-to-back set and will err on the side of caution with Butler as he ramps up for the season. The veteran wing is averaging 16.5 points, 9.0 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 1.5 steals and 0.5 blocks across 34.0 minutes in two games this year. In his absence, Tyler Herro figures to see a more dominant role on offense, while Duncan Robinson and rookie Jaime Jaquez could see bigger workloads.

Minnesota plays Miami in non-conference matchup

The Minnesota Timberwolves take on the Miami Heat in out-of-conference action
OCTOBER 28, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Kyle Lowry - Balanced showing as floor general Lowry accumulated 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-4 3Pt), eight rebounds, five assists and one block across 32 minutes during Friday's 119-111 loss to Boston.
Impact Lowry finished second on the team in rebounds and assists while finishing as one of four Heat players with a double-digit point total in Friday's loss. Lowry, who has played 32 minutes in each game so far, responded strong from a scoreless outing Wednesday in the regular-season opener against Detroit, posting strong marks in scoring, rebounds and assists.
OCTOBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Bam Adebayo - Another strong outing in paint Adebayo had 27 points (10-24 FG, 7-9 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal in 35 minutes during Friday's 119-111 loss to the Celtics.
Impact Adebayo finished second on the team in scoring while finishing three points shy of the 30-point mark in a big outing. Adebayo has gotten off to a strong start for the Heat this year, posting two straight games with at least 22 points, seven rebounds, two assists and two blocks to begin the season.
OCTOBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Tyler Herro - Leads offense from deep in defeat Herro closed Friday's 119-111 loss to the Celtics with 28 points (10-19 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, six assists and one steal over 40 minutes.
Impact Herro led all Heat players in scoring, threes made and assists while finishing as one of two Miami players with 25 or more points in Friday's loss. Herro struggled shooting in Wednesday's regular-season opener against Detroit but managed to bounce back against the Celtics. The fact that he's put up 19 threes already through two games bodes well for those using him in that category and for his role in the offense as a starter.

Duncan Robinson - Available Friday Robinson (foot) is available Friday against the Celtics.
Impact Robinson was carrying a probable tag prior to this update. Friday's game is the front end of a back-to-back set, but Miami has not reported any minute restrictions for Robinson.
OCTOBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jaime Jaquez Jr. - Good to go Jaquez (groin) is available for Friday's game against the Celtics.
Impact No surprise here, as Jaquez had a probable designation prior to the game. Barring any setbacks, look for him to be available to provide depth at forward when needed.
OCTOBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Caleb Martin - Out Friday Martin (knee) will not play in Friday's matchup with the Celtics,
Impact Martin was downgraded from probable to questionable earlier in the day, so he was trending in this direction. Thus, his next opportunity to suit up will come Saturday versus the Timberwolves.
OCTOBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Caleb Martin - Downgraded to questionable Martin (knee) is questionable for Friday's contest against the Celtics, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.
Impact Martin was previously listed as probable, so he's trending in the wrong direction. He's presumably still battling knee tendinitis, which caused him to miss most of Miami's preseason schedule.
