Nikola Jovic - Expected to play Tuesday Jovic (knee) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.

Impact Jovic continues to deal with a minor right knee contusion that he suffered on Friday against Portland, but he was able to play through it Sunday against the Wizards and recorded 12 points (4-9 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 22 minutes.

Terry Rozier - Probable for Tuesday Rozier is probable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks due to a left knee contusion.

Impact Rozier hasn't missed a game in over a month, and it seems unlikely that his knee issue will impact his availability for Tuesday's matchup. Across his last five appearances, he's averaged 18.2 points, 3.6 rebounds and 3.4 assists in 31.4 minutes per game.

Caleb Martin - Probable for Tuesday Martin (ankle) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.

Impact Terry Rozier (knee), Duncan Robinson (back) and Nikola Jovic (knee) are also expected to play for Miami. Martin missed Sunday's game against the Wizards due to some discomfort, but it appears that he has turned the corner with this injury.

Orlando Robinson - Recalled to NBA Miami recalled Robinson from the G League's Sioux Falls Skyforce on Sunday.

Impact Robinson played one minute during Sunday's 119-107 win over the Wizards but didn't record any counting stats. He's appeared in five of Miami's last six games, totaling eight points, five rebounds, five assists and one block in 25 minutes.

Duncan Robinson - Hits two three-pointers in return Robinson (back) recorded six points (2-7 FG, 2-7 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one block in 28 minutes Sunday in the Heat's 119-107 win over the Wizards.

Impact Making his return from a five-game absence due to left facet syndrome, Robinson delivered an underwhelming fantasy line overall despite seeing quality minutes, but he wasn't a total zero for those that streamed him for three-pointers. Before his recent absence, Robinson had started in each of his last 12 appearances while averaging 13.9 points, 3.7 assists, 3.5 rebounds, 3.0 three-pointers and 1.0 steals in 32.8 minutes per contest, so he could be worthy of a pickup in 12-team leagues where he might have been dropped. However, Robinson will likely move into a bench role and see his playing time take a hit as soon as Tyler Herro (foot) is ready to return.

Nikola Jovic - Hits 12 points, grabs eight boards Jovic ended Sunday's 119-107 victory over the Wizards with 12 points (4-9 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 22 minutes.

Impact Jovic was listed as probable with a knee contusion before Sunday's match, and if his performance was of any indication, he didn't deal with any lingering effects from that minor issue. Jovic has established himself as a regular starter for the Heat in recent weeks and is averaging 8.2 points, 4.0 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 0.8 steals per game since the beginning of March.

Bam Adebayo - Solid at both ends Sunday Adebayo ended with 22 points (6-12 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 10-12 FT), nine rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals in 37 minutes during Sunday's 119-107 win over Washington.

Impact Adebayo finished just one rebound shy of recording a double-double in what would've been his fourth time reaching that feat over his last five appearances. Adebayo is playing a prominent role for the Heat on both ends of the court, and even though this is still Jimmy Butler's team, Adebayo has been nothing of sensational over the last month. He finished March with averages of 17.8 points, 11.2 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.5 steals per contest.

Terry Rozier - Carries Miami in scoring Sunday Rozier ended with 27 points (11-19 FG, 5-11 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists, one block and four steals over 35 minutes during Sunday's 119-107 win over the Wizards.

Impact Rozier led the way for the Heat in this one and posted his fourth game with 20 or more points across his last seven appearances, as the veteran guard is embracing a bigger role on offense ahead of the final weeks of the regular season. Rozier enters the final two weeks of the campaign with averages of 18.4 points, 4.4 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game over his last 10 appearances.

Robinson was on a heater before his injury, averaging 16.0 points, 3.9 assists, 3.0 rebounds and 1.1 steals across 14 consecutive starts. Robinson may face some limitations during his return but is expected to start at shooting guard, as Miami remains without Tyler Herro (foot), Caleb Martin (ankle) and Josh Richardson (shoulder).

Impact It's the first double-double of the season for Bryant, who also led the Heat in scoring during the biggest win in franchise history. The 22 minutes tied his season high, but the 26-year-old center has seen a larger role of late. With Nikola Jovic picking up a knee bruise Friday, there could be more minutes available for Bryant in the frontcourt in the short term.

Impact It's the best scoring performance of the season for Highsmith, but the 27-year-old forward has been seeing big minutes off the wing for the Heat of late. He's played at least 22 minutes in five of the last six games, starting one of them, and over the last three he has averaged 27.7 minutes, 17.7 points, 5.7 boards, 4.0 threes, 1.7 assists and 1.3 steals while shooting an absurd 76.9 percent from the floor and 92.3 percent (12-for-13) from long distance.
