Flirts with double-double in loss Tucker registered seven points (3-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), nine rebounds, four assists and two steals over 36 minutes during Wednesday's 118-104 loss to Golden State.
Impact Tucker actually had himself a decent night given the eventual outcome, falling just short of a double-double. The Heat were terrible on the whole, falling short of the mark against a Warriors team missing a plethora of key players. Tucker has been able to maintain a consistent role this season, but apart from a brief run as a 12-team asset, he can generally be ignored in all competitive formats.

Double-doubles in win Tucker closed Monday's 123-106 victory over the Rockets with 11 points (5-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt), 12 rebounds and two assists in 25 minutes.
Impact Tucker grabbed a team-high 12 rebounds, falling one short of his season high, and scored in double figures for the first time since Feb. 17 en route to his fifth double-double of the campaign.
