Tyler Johnson Has Been Traded to Phoenix

Miami Heat guard Tyler Johnson has been traded to the Phoenix Suns in exchange for Ryan Anderson. This is clearly a salary swap move, but Johnson is the better player, so it hurts the Heat. The Suns desperately need guard help, so Johnson should be able to easily play 30 minutes in Phoenix. He needs […]

Dwyane Wade Has Big Night Tuesday

Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade had a big game against the Blazers on Tuesday with 22 points, nine rebounds and three assists. It was vintage D-Wade, much closer to his career numbers of 22.1 points, 4.3 assists and 3.7 rebounds. His season numbers of 12.3 points, 4.3 assists and 3.7 rebounds only make him an […]

Wow!!! Just 10 teams in action on the 16th Friday of the NBA season, marking a season-low five games on the docket for the weekend's opening night.

Dwyane Wade is Probable for Friday

Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade (knee) is probable for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Tyler Johnson, Wayne Ellington, and Dion Waiters will see their minutes reduced back to normal.

Dwyane Wade Hopeful to Play on Friday

Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade (knee) is hopeful that he'll be able to play in Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Wade was unable to play in Wednesday's contest due to right knee soreness. Tyler Johnson, Wayne Ellington, and Dion Waiters saw increased minutes without Wade on the court. Should be a similar formula […]

Miami Heat shooting guard Wayne Ellington shot a poor 3-for-11 from deep on Wednesday against Chicago, but he ended up with a decent line, scoring 13 points with four rebounds and two steals.

Wade's teammate, Tyler Johnson (sore calf) was also questionable, but will "give it a try" […]

Dwyane Wade is Questionable Against Bulls

Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Wade is dealing with right knee soreness, so it wouldn't be surprising to see the Heat give him the day off versus the shaky Bulls. Wayne Ellington and Dion Waiters would see more playing time without Wade in […]

Tyler Johnson is Questionable for Wednesday

Miami Heat guard Tyler Johnson (calf) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Johnson was unable to play in Sunday's game due to left calf soreness. Derrick Jones (knee) is going to be sidelined at least six weeks, so Johnson should see more minutes coming his way.

Derrick Jones Out Six Weeks

Miami Heat forward Derrick Jones (knee) has been diagnosed with a pair of bone bruises in his right knee and will be sidelined at least six weeks.
