Pelle Larsson Fantasy Stats

Miami Heat guard/forward Pelle Larsson (elbow) will miss Wednesday's action against the New Orleans Pelicans. An elbow injury will keep Larsson sidelined for a third consecutive game. Miami is currently carrying several injuries, increasing the importance of Jaime Jaquez Jr., Simone Fontecchio, and Kasparas Jakucionis in the rotation. All three could make noise in Wednesday's favorable matchup against a struggling team that has the fourth-lowest defensive rating in the Association.

Miami Heat guard/forward Pelle Larsson (elbow) did not return to Friday's loss to Boston after sustaining a right elbow contusion, finishing with zero points, five rebounds, and three assists in 12 minutes. His status for Sunday against Washington is uncertain. Should Larsson sit, Simone Fontecchio could pick up extra run, though his fantasy appeal remains tied almost entirely to scoring, while Myron Gardner is a deep-league flier only. Gardner has started two recent games, averaging 13.0 points and 8.5 rebounds in 22.5 minutes in those starts, but his role and production remain inconsistent.

Miami Heat guard/forward Pelle Larsson (ankle) will not finish Monday's contest against the Denver Nuggets. He has been ruled out for the remainder of the game due to a right ankle sprain. The Swedish youngster sustained the injury early in the fourth quarter. With Bam Adebayo's return, Larsson dropped to the second unit on Monday, tallying three points and two rebounds before his premature exit. Simone Fontecchio may re-enter the regular rotation this week if Larsson misses additional time.

Miami Heat guard Pelle Larsson (ankle) will play on Friday against Atlanta after missing the last five games. The 24-year-old has averaged 8.7 points, 3.2 assists, and 2.5 rebounds this season. Of course, he's played a little better in his 16 appearances as a starter. There's a chance he could find himself back in the starting lineup on Friday, considering Bam Adebayo (back) and Tyler Herro (toe) are out. With that said, he's not the safest fantasy option by any means, although the upside is there for those willing to take a risk in a contest versus one of the worst defensive clubs in the NBA. That applies regardless of Larsson's role.

Miami Heat guard Pelle Larsson (ankle) is listed as probable for Friday night's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Larsson has missed the last five games recovering from a left ankle sprain but returns to a decent matchup against a struggling Hawks defense. Larsson's value on Friday night will depend on whether or not Miami has him in the starting lineup and, if he's not, if he has a minutes restriction. Fantasy managers and DFS managers should keep an eye on this before plugging him into their lineups as his impact will be much greater if he's starting.

Miami Heat guard/forward Pelle Larsson (ankle) will be sidelined for a second straight game on Thursday against the Brooklyn Nets. He is recovering from a left ankle sprain. Larsson didn't practice on Wednesday, making it unlikely that he can return on Friday when Miami finishes a back-to-back against the Boston Celtics. Dru Smith, Simone Fontecchio, and Jaime Jaquez Jr. can make a bigger mark with Larsson, Tyler Herro (toe), and Nikola Jovic (elbow) out against Brooklyn. The team may also miss Norman Powell (calf), who is listed as questionable.

Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports that Miami Heat guard/forward Pelle Larsson (ankle) will miss at least a week after an MRI determined he has a sprained right ankle. The 24-year-old sustained the injury during Tuesday's NBA Cup Quarterfinal game against the Magic. He has played in 24 games this season and is averaging 8.7 points, 3.2 assists and 2.5 rebounds across 21.9 minutes per contest. With Larsson on the shelf, Jaime Jaquez will likely take on extra minutes, giving fantasy managers a solid streaming option going into the Heat's next matchup against the Raptors on December 15.

Miami Heat guard/forward Pelle Larsson (hip) was listed as probable but has been upgraded to available for Tuesday's NBA Cup Quarterfinal game against the Magic, along with Davion Mitchell and Tyler Herro. Larsson has played 23 games (16 starts) this season and is averaging 9.0 points, 3.3 assists, 2.5 rebounds, and 22.4 minutes per game. The 24-year-old from Sweden missed Saturday's loss to the Kings and had come off the bench with a minimal impact in four of his five games before that. His return to the rotation will likely limit the minutes of Nikola Jovic and Simone Fontecchio, who got extra playing time in Saturday's short-handed rotation.

Miami Heat guard/forward Pelle Larsson (hip) practiced on Monday and is listed as probable for Tuesday's NBA Cup matchup against the Orlando Magic. He was unavailable on Saturday against the Sacramento Kings due to a hip problem. Larsson's fantasy value has plummeted in recent weeks as Miami has returned to full health. Since Tyler Herro's season debut on Nov. 24, Larsson has been limited to 5.5 points, 1.3 rebounds, and 2.8 assists in 20.6 minutes per game. Across his last two outings, Larsson has shot just 1-for-9 from the field, scoring four points. Currently, the Swedish youngster isn't a good fantasy option.

According to Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun, Miami Heat guard/forward Pelle Larsson (ankle) is available to play against the Dallas Mavericks after carrying a questionable tag earlier on Monday. Larsson is nursing a toe sprain in his right foot. However, the injury won't keep him out of action during tonight's tilt. The 24-year-old has played in all 21 Heat games this season, posting averages of 9.7 points, 4.6 assists, and 2.7 rebounds across 22.5 minutes per contest. Miami may take a cautious approach and limit Larrson's minutes this evening as he deals with the new injury.
