Duncan Robinson To Miss Third Straight Game Due To Back Issue
Miami Heat guard/forward Duncan Robinson (back) will miss a third consecutive game on Saturday against the Philadelphia 76ers. The veteran sharpshooter has been dealing with a back issue recently and has not joined the team for the first stop on a three-game road trip. With Andrew Wiggins (hamstring) also not playing on Saturday, Miami will hope to receive more production from the likes of Kyle Anderson, Haywood Highsmith, and Jaime Jaquez Jr.
Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports that Miami Heat guard/forward Duncan Robinson (back) is out for Thursday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The 30-year-old sharpshooter will be on the shelf for his third consecutive game due to lower back pain. Alec Burks, Jaime Jaquez and Davion Mitchell could also see extra minutes in the backcourt while Robinson is sidelined. Burks will likely remain in the starting lineup this evening, as he finished with 17 points in 24 minutes against Golden State on Tuesday.
Miami Heat guard/forward Duncan Robinson (back) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Lower back pain sidelined Robinson for Tuesday's matchup with the Golden State Warriors, and he may now miss a second straight contest due to this issue. Alec Burks (back) started in place of Robinson against the Warriors, but he might be unavailable for Thursday's game as well, as Miami has also deemed him questionable. If both Robinson and Burks cannot play against Atlanta, Jaime Jaquez Jr. could be next in line to start.
According to Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel, Miami Heat guard/forward Duncan Robinson (back) is unavailable for Tuesday's matchup with the Golden State Warriors. Robinson will miss the game due to lower back pain. The 30-year-old had started five of the six games ahead of Tuesday. While Robinson is on the shelf, Jaime Jaquez Jr., Davion Mitchell, and Alec Burks are the candidates who could see expanded roles this evening. Among the three players, Mitchell has delivered the most consistent fantasy output.
Miami Heat guard/forward Duncan Robinson (back) has been tagged as questionable on the injury report for Tuesday's matchup against the Golden State Warriors. He may be forced to exit the lineup due to lower back pain. Robinson has started in five of the past six games, and the Heat will certainly feel his absence if the three-point specialist needs to take time off. Jaime Jaquez Jr., Davion Mitchell, and Alec Burks are the candidates to step in for Robinson in the starting unit. Among the three players, Mitchell has delivered the most consistent fantasy output.
Miami Heat guard/forward Duncan Robinson (illness) has officially been listed as available for Thursday's matchup against the Dallas Mavericks. He initially carried a probable tag on the injury report. Robinson is back in the lineup after missing Wednesday's meeting with the Oklahoma City Thunder due to a stomach bug. The illness has taken out Andrew Wiggins and Terry Rozier on Thursday, and Bam Adebayo (knee) is also sidelined, so we should see Robinson plenty with the ball. Davion Mitchell and Alec Burks may lose minutes to him.
Miami Heat guard Duncan Robinson missed Wednesday night's loss to Oklahoma City with a stomach bug that is going around the Miami locker room, but he is listed as probable to play on Thursday night when Miami finishes its back-to-back set against the Mavs. With Andrew Wiggins (illness) out and Bam Adebayo (knee) questionable, Robinson could even get more usage than normal if he is up for it. He could also start in Wiggins' place, and in his last 11 games as a starter, he averaged 12.0 points, 2.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists, and 2.8 three-pointers in 28.5 minutes per game. He has some streaming appeal if you need three-pointers headed into the All-Star break.
According to Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel, Miami Heat guard/forward Duncan Robinson (illness) won't play against the Oklahoma Thunder on Wednesday. Like teammate Terry Rozier (illness), Robinson will be out of the lineup due to the stomach flu. The 30-year-old has played 49 games this season, averaging 10.7 points, 2.3 rebounds and 2.6 assists. Fantasy managers could look for Andrew Wiggins to see more scoring opportunities with Robinson out. He finished with 11 points, five rebounds, five assists, one steal and one block in his first game in a Heat uniform on Monday against the Celtics.
Duncan Robinson In Danger Of Missing A Second Straight Game
Miami Heat guard/forward Duncan Robinson (foot) is questionable for Wednesday's clash against New Orleans. He might be absent for a second straight game due to a right foot strain. With Terry Rozier suspended for Wednesday's contest, Alec Burks could be the next man in line to shine off the Heat bench. Burks hasn't had much joy in Miami this season, averaging 6.6 points in 17.1 minutes, but he's a microwave scorer who can get going quickly.
Miami Heat guard/forward Duncan Robinson has said that he's fully recovered from a back injury that limited him during the final stretch of 2023-24. Robinson was enjoying a strong bounce-back campaign before being struck by a left facet syndrome. He missed the final 14 regular-season games due to the issue. Robinson returned for the playoffs but clearly wasn't at 100 percent as he struggled badly. However, the 30-year-old sniper appears fully healthy now, telling reporters he is "not restricted in any way" and has "no limitations." Robinson sits among the best outside shooters in the Association and has also developed as a playmaker. He averaged a career-high 2.8 assists last season while posting 12.9 points in 28.0 minutes.
