TERRY ROZIER NEWS

Seen without brace Rozier (knee) was participating in Thursday's practice without a brace or wrap, Wes Goldberg of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Rozier missed Miami's final two games before the All-Star break due to a right knee sprain he suffered against Boston. While Rozier didn't participate in any live drills Thursday, it doesn't appear as though he is dealing with a major injury. Fantasy managers should look out for an official injury report to clarify his status for Friday's matchup with the Pelicans.

Deemed week-to-week Rozier (knee) is considered week-to-week after an MRI confirmed that he avoided a serious injury, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

Impact The Heat have diagnosed Rozier with a sprained right knee, and he'll be re-evaluated on a weekly basis. While this makes for a murky timetable, it means we won't see him until at least after the All-Star break. With Jimmy Butler (personal) out the next two games, Miami will need to heavily rely on Tyler Herro, Duncan Robinson, Jaime Jaquez and Caleb Martin.

Slated for MRI Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra said after Sunday's 110-106 loss to the Celtics that Rozier (knee) will undergo an MRI on Monday, ESPN.com reports.

Impact Rozier generated 13 points, six assists and four rebounds in 24 minutes before he exited with 4:43 remaining in the third quarter, when he landed awkwardly on his right leg while driving to the basket. He drew a foul on the play but was unable to take his two free throws, resulting in him being ruled out for the rest of the contest. Though the Heat attributed his departure to a right knee injury, the MRI should provide more clarity on the extent of the issue. Rozier hasn't been ruled out for the Heat's back-to-back set Tuesday and Wednesday in Milwaukee and Philadelphia, respectively, though the fact that he's being sent in for an MRI doesn't bode well for his chances of playing in either contest.

Exits early Sunday with knee injury Rozier suffered a right knee injury in the third quarter of Sunday's game against Boston and has been ruled out for the remainder of the contest, Jared Weiss of The Athletic report...

Impact Rozier suffered the injury when he slashed into the paint and landed on his right leg in an off-balance fashion, crumpling to the ground and ultimately being helped to the locker room in the aftermath of the incident. Since he was unable to take the free-throw attempts he drew as a result of drawing a foul on the play, he's ineligible to return to the contest. Josh Richardson (shoulder) was ruled out for the remainder of the contest earlier Sunday, leaving Miami's backcourt shorthanded while Jimmy Butler (personal) also isn't available.

2024 NBA trade deadline live updates, deals, grades: Knicks go all-in, Lakers stand pat

The 2024 NBA trade deadline arrives on Feb. 8, but already we've seen some big names switching teams this season. Here are the biggest trade...

FEBRUARY 8

Pops for 18 against Magic Rozier registered 18 points (7-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 31 minutes during Tuesday's 121-95 victory over Orlando.

Impact The 29-year-old point guard produced another solid all-around performance for his new team. In his last six starts for the Heat, Rozier is averaging 14.0 points, 6.2 assists, 5.5 boards, 1.2 threes and 0.8 steals, but his efficiency (38.2 FG% and 25.9 3Pt%) and volume (12.7 FG attempts per game) are way down from the numbers he was putting up with the Hornets.

FEBRUARY 7 • ROTOWIRE

Productive against Clippers Rozier posted 17 points (7-17 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, five assists and two steals in 38 minutes during Sunday's 103-95 loss to the Clippers.

Impact The 29-year-old guard continues to adjust to his new system and teammates. Rozier has scored 15 or more points in three of the last four games, and he's produced at least five boards and five assists in three straight. On the other hand, he's shooting just 21.9 percent (7-for-32) from three-point range in seven contests as a member of the Heat, so he's not fully comfortable yet.

Breaks out for new team Monday Rozier had 21 points (8-14 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one block in 27 minutes during Monday's 118-105 loss to the Suns.

Impact It was Rozier's best scoring effort by far since being traded to the Heat -- he'd managed just 26 points total in his first three games for his new club. The veteran guard also broke out of a shooting slump that had seen him go 3-for-29 (10.3 percent) from three-point range over his prior six contests. The 29-year-old guard is still getting comfortable in Miami, but he could b e gearing up for a big February.

Scores seven in blowout loss Rozier totaled seven points (3-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt), two rebounds, three assists and one steal across 29 minutes during Thursday's 143-110 loss to the Celtics.

Impact The Heat struggled to keep up with the Celtics offensively during Thursday's matchup, and Rozier had an inefficient showing during his second appearance with Miami. It was encouraging to see him take on a starting role after coming off the bench Wednesday against the Grizzlies in his team debut, but he's now been held below 10 points in back-to-back appearances with the Heat after scoring in double figures in 29 of his 30 appearances this year before being traded.

JANUARY 26 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Thursday Rozier will move into the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Celtics.

Impact Scary Terry came off the bench in his Miami debut Wednesday, but he'll be replacing Josh Richardson in the first unit Thursday evening and will be joined by Tyler Herro, Haywood Highsmith, Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo. He should be able to flirt with minutes in the 30s as a starter, so this is a positive development for his fantasy outlook.

Shooting struggles in Heat debut Rozier accumulated nine points (3-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, five assists and two steals across 29 minutes during Wednesday's 105-96 loss to the Grizzlies.

Impact In his first game with Miami since being traded by the Hornets on Tuesday, Rozier shot just 27.3 percent from the field and committed three turnovers. He came off the bench in Wednesday's loss, but he could slot into the starting lineup for Thursday's contest against the Celtics. Rozier is averaging a career-high 23.2 points per game this season on 45.9 percent shooting.
