Jaime Jaquez Jr. - Shines off bench in Sunday win Jaquez racked up 18 points (6-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 6-7 FT), four rebounds, five assists, two blocks and one steal over 32 minutes during Sunday's 118-103 win over Toronto.
Impact Jaquez thrived in a starting role earlier this season, and while he had some problems adjusting to a bench role as the campaign progressed, there's no question the rookie out of UCLA was one of the league's best first-year players while also ending the season on a strong note. Jaquez should see decent minutes off the bench when the Heat take on the 76ers in the Play-In Tournament on Wednesday.

Bam Adebayo - Goes for 17 points Sunday Adebayo accumulated 17 points (8-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one block and three steals over 19 minutes during Sunday's 118-103 win over Toronto.
Impact Adebayo only logged 19 minutes, as the Heat wanted to rest him for the Play-In Tournament matchup against the 76ers on Wednesday, but the star big man delivered a strong showing, missing just two shots from the field and making his mark defensively as well. Adebayo posted 39 appearances with at least 20 points while recording 42 double-doubles in the regular season.

Tyler Herro - Stuffs stat sheet in win Sunday Herro ended Sunday's 118-103 victory over the Raptors with 17 points (5-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), six rebounds, eight assists and one steal across 29 minutes.
Impact Herro delivered a solid outing Sunday and finished just two dimes away from a double-double, playing a prominent role on offense as the Heat wrapped up their regular season with a comfortable win over the Raptors. Herro's workload in the Play-In matchup against the 76ers on Wednesday could be determined by the availability of Terry Rozier (neck), but he should find himself in the starting lineup either way. Herro has scored 17 or more points in his six appearances this month.

Duncan Robinson - Upgraded to questionable Robinson (back) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Raptors, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.
Impact Robinson recently said that he doesn't have a clear timetable to return to action, and it remains to be seen if he'll able to suit up for the final game of the regular season having missed each of Miami's previous three contests. Caleb Martin, Haywood Highsmith and Jaime Jaquez are among the players who could benefit from expanded roles if Robinson doesn't play Sunday.

Terry Rozier - Remains out Sunday Rozier (neck) won't play in Sunday's game versus the Raptors, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.
Impact Rozier will miss his fourth straight game Sunday while dealing with neck spasms. Caleb Martin or Duncan Robinson (back) will likely continue to start in his absence. With Rozier being ruled out for Miami's regular-season finale, his next chance to suit up will come in the Play-In Tournament.

Jaime Jaquez Jr. - Sniffs double-double Jaquez posted 20 points (7-15 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, nine assists, one block and two steals across 32 minutes during Friday's 125-103 victory over the Raptors.
Impact Jaquez registered his ninth outing with 20 or more points this season, and while he has been losing his place in head coach Erik Spoelstra's rotation compared to earlier in the campaign, he's still capable of putting up solid numbers on any given game. Jaquez has averaged just 8.6 points, 2.7 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game over his last 10 appearances, however, so he doesn't carry a lot of upside into the regular-season finale against the Raptors on Sunday.
