Haywood Highsmith News
Free-agent forward Haywood Highsmith agreed to a two-year, $11 million contract to remain with the Miami Heat. The 27-year-old has spent the last three seasons in Miami, most recently finishing the 2023-24 campaign by averaging a career-high 6.1 points and 39.6% shooting from deep. Although he didn't always see minutes last season, he at least drew 26 starts. Haywood's situation likely won't change in 2024-25. While that won't make him an attractive fantasy asset in most drafts, he has plenty of streaming potential, considering Jimmy Butler has had issues staying on the floor.

Haywood Highsmith Drawing A Lot Of Interest
Miami Heat forward Haywood Highsmith will be a popular man in free agency after finishing off a three-year, $3.9 million deal. Speaking on the Locket On Heat podcast, Michael Scotto of HoopsHype noted that Highsmith "has a lot of interest around the league." The 27-year-old posted career numbers in multiple categories in 2023-24, averaging 6.1 points and 3.2 rebounds in 20.7 minutes, with 39.6 percent shooting from deep. He hasn't been a fantasy factor, but Highsmith is seen as a good defender, and it looks like this will help him secure a good contract this offseason.

Haywood Highsmith Available To Play Wednesday
Miami Heat forward Haywood Highsmith (foot) will suit up for Wednesday's game versus the Boston Celtics. The 27-year-old is listed on the injury report because of plantar fasciitis in his right foot, however, he will be able to play through the ailment as Miami hopes to keep their season alive in Game 5. The Heat are facing elimination against a talented Celtics team, and it is likely Highsmith will play a larger role since Miami is missing key players such as Jimmy Butler (knee), Terry Rozier (neck), and Jaime Jaquez Jr. (hip). Highsmith could be a sneaky play for DFS managers for Wednesday's game, as he has seen at least 19 minutes in every matchup of this series.
May 1
Haywood Highsmith Questionable For Saturday
Miami Heat forward Haywood Highsmith (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's matchup against Utah. He's in danger of missing a second consecutive contest, although Highsmith wasn't on the injury report for Thursday's meeting with Denver. He was added to the report with a left knee effusion on Friday. Highsmith's absence leaves more minutes available to Nikola Jovic and Caleb Martin (thumb). The latter had the better performance coming off the bench on Thursday and is a much more reliable fantasy option than Jovic, although Martin is also questionable for Saturday's game.
Mar 1
Haywood Highsmith Exits Early On Saturday
Miami Heat forward Haywood Highsmith (concussion) was forced to exit early during Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz. Highsmith was placed in concussion protocol after colliding with Collin Sexton as both players went for a loose ball. This didn't look good as Highsmith needed assistance getting back to the locker room. The expectation is that Highsmith will need to clear the league's concussion protocol before playing again. The Heat also lost Jimmy Butler (foot) during this game. Jaime Jaquez Jr., Duncan Robinson, and even Jamal Cain could be looking at bigger roles soon.
Dec 31
Haywood Highsmith Out For Fourth Straight Game
Miami Heat forward Haywood Highsmith (back) will miss a fourth straight contest on Wednesday against Charlotte. The injury bug has caught the Heat again, and Highsmith has dropped out of the lineup with a lower back contusion. With Bam Adebayo (hip) also continuing to sit, Kevin Love, Caleb Martin, and Orlando Robinson have put in extra shifts on the Heat frontcourt. Wednesday's clash with the Hornets is a juicy matchup for them, as Charlotte has a bad defense and struggles to rebound the ball.
Dec 13
Haywood Highsmith Won't Play Against Charlotte
Miami Heat forward/center Haywood Highsmith (back) remains out for Monday's meeting with the Hornets in Charlotte. He's battling a back issue, so he'll now miss his third straight game. It's a tough blow for the Heat, considering the team has been without Bam Adebayo (hip), meaning the club lacks size underneath the basket. That said, until either Adebayo or Highsmith are ready to return, Orlando Robinson, averaging 12.0 points and 8.3 rebounds in three starts, should continue to benefit on the fantasy end.
Dec 10
Haywood Highsmith Set To Miss Another Game
Miami Heat forward Haywood Highsmith (back) will have to miss his second game in a row due to a lower back contusion. He will watch Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers from the sidelines while both Duncan Robinson (groin) and Caleb Martin (shoulder) seem slated to be in the lineup. Both of them along with Jaime Jaquez Jr. and Josh Richardson can all be replacements for Highsmith. Fantasy managers will want to have a backup plan every time a Heat player is involved in their lineup.
Dec 8
Haywood Highsmith Questionable For Tuesday
Miami Heat forward Haywood Highsmith (back) is regarded as questionable for Tuesday's big battle with Milwaukee. The 26-year-old might have to sit out the action after he couldn't practice fully on Monday due to a lower back contusion suffered in the previous game against Brooklyn. Highsmith made a 12th consecutive start versus the Nets, and he would be a significant loss from the Heat rotation. Jaime Jaquez Jr., Kevin Love, and Nikola Jovic would be the potential beneficiaries of Highsmith's absence.
Nov 28
Haywood Highsmith To Miss At Least Two Weeks
Miami Heat forward Haywood Highsmith (knee) is expected to miss some time after suffering an injury during Wednesday's preseason contest. Highsmith has been diagnosed with a sprained left MCL. The Heat plan to hold him Highsmith and re-evaluate him in two weeks. This comes at a bad time with Josh Richardson (foot) and Jaime Jaquez Jr. (groin) both banged up. The Heat could be thin at the forward spot heading into the regular season. Duncan Robinson and Dru Smith could be looking at extended run with the Heat shorthanded.
