Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier (illness) will be active on Wednesday against the Los Angeles Clippers. He has shaken off an illness, with the team upgrading Rozier from probable to available. The veteran guard has a tendency to blow hot and cold, and he finished Monday's matchup against the Charlotte Hornets with only four points on 20 percent shooting. Rozier has produced 7.4 points per game since the All-Star break, making him an unattractive fantasy target.
Terry Rozier Will Not Play Thursday Against The Mavericks
Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier (illness) will miss a second straight game while battling a stomach bug that has been circulating in the Heat's locker room. Rozier also missed Wednesday night's loss in Oklahoma City, allowing Davion Mitchell to start alongside Tyler Herro in the backcourt. Mitchell had 14 points, three assists, a steal, and a rebound in his 35 minutes, and he'll likely get plenty of work again on Thursday. Duncan Robinson (illness) will return from his one-game absence, but Mitchell's playing time should be relatively secure since Andrew Wiggins (illness) will join Rozier on the sidelines.
According to Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel, Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier (illness) won't play against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday. Rozier has the stomach flu and will miss his first game since January 1st. The 30-year-old is averaging 12.4 points, 4.1 rebounds, 2.9 assists in 28.5 minutes across 47 games this season. Davion Mitchell will likely see an expanded role with Rozier out of the lineup.
Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier has not been charged with a crime nor has he been accused of wrongdoing at this point, but federal investigators are investigating his play in a game from the 2023 season when he played for the Charlotte Hornets. The NBA confirmed on Thursday that this is part of the same probe that led to the lifetime ban of Jontay Porter, but the NBA also said that it investigated the matter and did not find any league rules that were broken. The game in question took place on March 23, 2023, against the Pelicans. Rozier left after just 9:36 due to a foot issue and did not play in the remaining eight games of the Hornets' season. Since Charlotte was out of playoff contention, Rozier's absence wasn't especially surprising, but the action on his player props from that game has drawn federal attention. At this point, no action has been taken regarding Rozier, but this could be a huge story if it ultimately leads to a suspension or change in limitations and regulations around player props. Stay tuned for more details as the story unfolds.
Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier has been suspended one game for his involvement in a physical altercation during Sunday's win over the Rockets. The 30-year-old hasn't had the best season, averaging 12.0 points and shooting 32.2% from behind the arc. While he isn't a steady fantasy contributor, his absence for Wednesday's matchup with the New Orleans Pelicans could at least open up minutes for Alec Burks and Duncan Robinson (foot). However, Jimmy Butler (illness) will return on Wednesday, so Burks and Robinson could have trouble doing anything meaningful for fantasy managers.
Miami Heat point guard Terry Rozier (knee) will be back from a one-game absence on Thursday versus Orlando. Inflammation in his left knee kept Rozier sidelined for Monday's clash with Brooklyn, but he makes a quick return to action after being initially considered questionable for Thursday's game. Rozier's last appearance came in a matchup against the Magic, where he posted 23 points. However, the veteran guard has been inconsistent with his offensive work, last hitting double figures in points in a second consecutive game on Dec. 1.
Terry Rozier Questionable For Thursday's Matchup With Magic
According to Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel, Miami Heat point guard Terry Rozier (knee) is questionable for Thursday's contest with the Orlando Magic. Rozier is in danger of missing the second game in a row due to left knee inflammation. Jimmy Butler (personal) is doubtful. Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo will be expected to carry the offense, and Duncan Robinson and Jaime Jaquez Jr. will also need to contribute.
Miami Heat point guard Terry Rozier (knee) will not play against Brooklyn on Monday. He was initially expected to feature in the contest, as the team gave Rozier a probable designation on the injury report, but knee inflammation will keep Rozier sidelined. Miami also won't have Jimmy Butler (illness), so Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo will be expected to carry the offense, with Duncan Robinson and Jaime Jaquez Jr. also chipping in. Additionally, Dru Smith also becomes an interesting fantasy target with Rozier out. He's already had a handful of strong performances lately, going for 10-plus points in four of the last five games.
Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier (foot) has officially been deemed available for the team's Monday night matchup against the Boston Celtics. He's dealing with a neuroma in his foot which is a swollen nerve or group of nerves in the ball of the foot. So, it becomes more of a pain tolerance issue as he continues to play on it. Unfortunately, Rozier is averaging some of his lowest numbers since the 2018-19 season which has rendered him useful in deeper leagues, but not much in 12 or fewer team leagues.

The 30-year-old will return to action following a two-game absence due to a foot injury. Rozier has had an up-and-down season, making it challenging to predict his performance on a nightly basis. In his most recent outing against the Indiana Pacers, he posted nine points and four rebounds. This season, he is averaging 12.9 points in 31.8 minutes per game.
