Davion Mitchell Fantasy Stats

Miami Heat point guard Davion Mitchell (shoulder) will return to work on Sunday against the Chicago Bulls after missing six games. Miami has upgraded Mitchell from probable to available. Mitchell's return will primarily affect the playing time of Kasparas Jakucionis and Dru Smith. However, with Tyler Herro (ribs), Norman Powell (personal), and Nikola Jovic (hip) all out, there will still be opportunities for Miami's second echelon to make an impact.

Miami Heat guards Tyler Herro (ribs) and Davion Mitchell (shoulder) won't be in action against the Chicago Bulls on Thursday. Due to a rib issue, Herro will sit out an eighth consecutive game, while Mitchell must skip his fifth straight contest with a shoulder injury. As a result of the backcourt injuries, Kasparas Jakucionis has recently filled in as the starting point guard. After initially showing promise, the rookie struggled in Wednesday's loss to the Orlando Magic, registering two points, one assist, two steals, and two turnovers in 20 minutes. Dru Smith outperformed Jakucionis off the bench with 13 points, three rebounds, and seven assists in 22 minutes, potentially earning himself a larger role for Thursday's game.

Miami Heat point guard Davion Mitchell (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Orlando Magic. He may miss his fourth consecutive game due to a left shoulder injury that Mitchell sustained earlier this month. If Mitchell can't return against Orlando, Kasparas Jakucionis will remain in the starting unit. The Lithuanian rookie has made five total starts this season, averaging 8.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 3.6 assists. He could be a bit busier on Wednesday against an Orlando team that gives up the seventh-most fantasy points to point guards.

Miami Heat guard Davion Mitchell (shoulder) has been downgraded from doubtful to out ahead of Sunday's game against the Phoenix Suns. This marks the third game in a row that Mitchell has been forced to miss due to a left shoulder injury. Kasparas Jakucionis (face) has started the last two games, but remains questionable for this game with a facial contusion. Dru Smith would likely be asked to take on a significant role if both players are unable to go. Smith finished with six points, five assists, and 10 rebounds during Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz. He's worth a look as a streaming option with the Heat shorthanded at the guard spot right now.

Miami Heat guard Davion Mitchell (shoulder) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Mitchell has missed each of the last two games due to a left shoulder injury. He's trending in the right direction on Sunday, so fantasy managers should prepare to be without him. Kasparas Jakucionis (face) has started in each of the last two games, but is tagged as questionable for this game. The absence of both players would likely mean an increased role for Dru Smith in the rotation. Smith finished with six points, five assists, and 10 rebounds in 26 minutes of action during Saturday's game. He's worth a look as a streaming option with the Heat banged up at the guard spot right now.

Miami Heat point guard Davion Mitchell (shoulder) won't play Thursday night against the Portland Trail Blazers. He has been trending in the wrong direction throughout the day, and the team has downgraded Mitchell from doubtful to out before tip-off. Last week, Mitchell injured his left shoulder. He returned to the lineup on Monday and played in both games of a back-to-back set, but it appears his shoulder still hasn't fully healed. Kasparas Jakucionis saw an increased workload with Mitchell out of the rotation last week and is likely to see significant minutes again, especially with Tyler Herro (ribs) also sidelined.

Miami Heat guard Davion Mitchell (shoulder) has been downgraded to doubtful ahead of Thursday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Mitchell was tagged as questionable earlier in the day due to a left shoulder bruise. He has now been downgraded to doubtful, so fantasy managers should prepare to be without Mitchell. The Heat are already without Tyler Herro (rib), so losing Mitchell is going to put them in a bad spot. It would likely mean significant minutes for Pelle Larsson, Kasparas Jakucionis, and Dru Smith in the rotation. Among the trio, Larsson is the best streaming choice ahead of Thursday's slate.

Miami Heat guard Davion Mitchell (shoulder) was a late addition to his team's injury report ahead of their Thursday night matchup against the Trail Blazers. Mitchell missed two games with a shoulder contusion before returning Monday and playing 25 minutes against the Warriors. He also played on Tuesday against the Kings, logging 19 minutes, but apparently the shoulder is still an issue, since he is uncertain to be able to give it a go on Thursday. With Tyler Herro (ribs) out, there should be plenty of work for Mitchell if he can play through the injury, but if not, Dru Smith and Kasparas Jakucionis are candidates to fill in at point guard for the Heat's injury-depleted starting five.

Miami Heat guard Davion Mitchell (shoulder) will miss Saturday's game against Oklahoma City, sitting for a second straight contest with a shoulder bruise and targeting Monday versus Golden State as his next chance to return. His absence shifts ball-handling duties, especially with Tyler Herro (toe) questionable. Norman Powell is set up for added usage after scoring 26 points in 32 minutes last game, while Pelle Larsson logged 30 minutes in a complementary role. If Herro sits, Dru Smith would be asked to run the offense, though his fantasy value remains tied to minutes and matchups.

Miami Heat guard Davion Mitchell (shoulder) was downgraded to out after originally being listed as doubtful for Thursday's home game against the Boston Celtics. Mitchell picked up a left shoulder contusion on Tuesday against the Suns, and he'll miss at least one game with the injury. With the starting point guard out Thursday, Pelle Larsson and Dru Smith should get extra work in the backcourt and could be great value plays for DFS lineups or streaming consideration this Thursday.
