K. Olynyk - C

MIA

Kelly Olynyk (bruised right thumb) played 19 minutes during Wednesday's game against the Thunder, scoring nine points on 4-of-6 shooting with four rebounds and one assist.

Olynyk was initially 'probable' on the injury report, but it obviously wasn't serious since he played in an essentially meaningless game. Miami was already locked into the No. 4 seed before tip-off, and will be facing the Pacers in the first round. Olynyk didn't fare too well in two regular-season games vs. Indy this year, averaging 8.3 points on 40.0% shooting, 6.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and zero blocks, but the matchup will be different with Domantas Sabonis (foot) out of the equation.

G. Dragic - PG

MIA

Goran Dragic was excellent in a starting role on Wednesday, scoring 16 points on 7-of-12 shooting with six assists, five rebounds and two steals in 22 minutes.

The NBA's hiatus was a benefit for many players, giving them time to rest, and Dragic looks rejuvenated heading into the postseason. That said, his starting job should be short-lived. He's played a sixth-man role all year and Kendrick Nunn was out again with a sore throat, but he's officially past the quarantine and should be ready to roll when the Heat open their first-round series vs. Indiana.

T. Herro - SG

MIA

Tyler Herro was very busy on Wednesday, scoring 30 points on 9-of-16 FGs and 9-of-9 FTs, adding six rebounds, two assists, three 3-pointers, one steal and one block.

Herro did his damage in 38 minutes, but he did miss a potential game-winner at the buzzer. It must be noted that he got a ton of extra opportunity for multiple reasons -- starters for both teams were on a minute-limit and Kendrick Nunn (non-COVID illness) wasn't available. That doesn't detract from Herro's impressive play, and fantasy GMs should file this away as a reminder of his upside, but in his current role he's hard to trust for DFS value.

D. Robinson - SF

MIA

Duncan Robinson scored 19 points in 16 minutes on Wednesday, shooting 6-of-8 from the field with a 5-of-7 mark from downtown.

Robinson started alongside Goran Dragic, Jimmy Butler, Bam Adebayo and Jae Crowder, and he continues to light up opponents from the arc. Scouting reports have him as a priority to defend on the perimeter, and yet he continues to find ways to score -- he came into this game averaging 16.8 points with 3.7 triples in the bubble. In a league that increasingly demands court-spacing and 3-point shooters, Robinson is poised for a long run as an impactful player.

J. Butler - SF

MIA

Jimmy Butler had seven points, five rebounds, two assists, two steals and three turnovers in 16 minutes during a tune-up game on Wednesday.

The Heat will be playing the Pacers in the first round of the playoffs, which suddenly looks like a great draw -- Victor Oladipo is still regaining his form, Domantas Sabonis (plantar fasciitis) and Jeremy Lamb (knee surgery) are done for the season, and it was just revealed that red-hot T.J. Warren is also dealing with plantar fasciitis. Butler called Warren "trash" back in January, and there's been some social media trolling involved, so that individual matchup will be fun to watch.

S. Adams - C

OKC

Steven Adams (bruised left leg) had eight points, eight rebounds and one steal in 20 minutes of action vs. the Heat on Wednesday.

Adams missed three games with this injury. He's been extremely durable throughout his career and likely would have played if these seeding games had a big impact for OKC, but it was a good opportunity for the team to ensure he's healthy going into the offseason. The leg injury isn't a reason to shy away from him in DFS, and if anything he'll likely be under-priced in OKC's first playoff game.

D. Gallinari - PF

OKC

Danilo Gallinari returned on Wednesday with 14 points, hitting 10-of-10 free throws and 2-of-10 field goals in 21 minutes of action.

Gallo sat out Monday's game but it was just to give his left ankle some extra time to heal. The injury doesn't seem serious whatsoever. With most teams locked into playoff position and no actual homecourt advantage to play for, we're seeing tons of precautionary DNPs over the final few seeding games. Gallo was 0-of-6 from deep with zero assists, steals or blocks tonight, so hopefully you didn't pay up for him in DFS leagues.

N. Noel - C

OKC

Nerlens Noel (right ankle soreness) played 18 minutes vs. Miami on Wednesday, scoring two points with seven rebounds.

Noel committed four personal fouls during his limited time on the court, but the good news is that his ankle injury isn't an issue. As long as Steven Adams is healthy and starting, though, Noel will be a dicey fantasy option. Tonight's victory ensures they play the Rockets, too, a matchup that doesn't bode well for a backup big.
