Jimmy Butler Good To Go Against Memphis
Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (ankle) will play and start Wednesday night against the Memphis Grizzlies.

Meyers Leonard Won’t Play For Thunder
Oklahoma City Thunder power forward/center Meyers Leonard was dealt to his new organization Wednesday, but he will not actually see action with the squad. With Oklahoma City receiving a future second-round Draft choice as compensation for Trevor Ariza, they will look to move on from Leonard in the future in light of his off-the-court comments. […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for Wednesday (3/17/21) - Monkey Knife Fight
There are 10 games Wednesday and only three are projected to be low scoring. The Celtics and Cavaliers are both playing on the second night of a back-to-back, and the Pistons-Raptors just doesn't have a lot of firepower throughout. The Heat and Grizzlies are on a similar path because of their dedication to defense and […]
Jimmy Butler Could Miss Wednesday's Contest
Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The Heat are already shorthanded, so losing Butler would be a significant hit to their rotation. Honestly, knowing Butler, he'll play through the pain if he can, but we'll see what happens. Tyler Herro, KZ Okpala, and Max […]
Meyers Leonard Traded To Thunder
Miami Heat forward Meyers Leonard has reportedly been traded to the Oklahoma City Thunder. Miami will send Leonard and a 2027 second-round pick to OKC in exchange for veteran forward Trevor Ariza. This trade likely won't benefit either player in terms of fantasy value. Ariza hasn't played in a year and will have to compete […]

Bam Adebayo To Suit Up Against The Cavaliers
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (knee) will suit up against Cleveland on Tuesday. Adebayo had previously tried to play through his knee tendonitis, though the Heat sat him for four games.
