NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

Heat: The Heat has been struggling

The Heat has been off to a slow start. They have been struggling when Jimmy Butler has been sidelined and Tyler Herro has been carrying the offense for the most part. Adebayo has seemed to hit his peak and although he is a prolific Center, he can’t carry the offense as Jimmy does. Lowry’s offense has disappeared and that has hit the offense in big ways. The Heat offense can be rusty and their defense isn’t as tight as it was last season. However, we are still in the early parts of the season so there is a lot of time to recover.

Trail Blazers: Portland has been fighting hard

The Trail Blazers are the only team to beat the Suns and they did it twice. One of their wins was without both Damian Lillard and Anfernee Simons, which means that the move to bring Jerami Grant has worked as he has been clinical on both ends. Jusuf Nurkic has been doing his job as a Center whereas Josh Hart has influenced the proceedings on the defensive, rebounding, and playmaking end. Rookie Shaedon Sharpe has filled in well and despite some offensive struggles, Justise Winslow has been solid overall.

NBA Scores, Fantasy Basketball Top Picks

Jerami Grant(POR)
Points: 14
Rebounds: 05
Assists: 03
Blocks: 01
Grant is a solid two-way wing who has lifted the Trail Blazers effort many times. I believe he will be in 19-25 points, 6-9 rebounds, and 1-3 blocks/stealas range. Fox can be chosen as a Star/Pro Player in the Dream 11 NBA Fantasy scenario.

Jimmy Butler(MIA)
Buttler is not in the injury list for the game and when he plays, he is one of the best two-way players in the world. I believe he will be in 20-28 points, 5-8 rebounds, 4-7 assists, and 2-4 steals range.

Josh Hart(POR)
Points: 04
Rebounds: 07
Assists: 08
Steals: 01
Hart has been struggling on the offensive end but he provides great influence in many other areas. I believe he will be in 8-13 points, 6-9 rebounds, and 6-9 assists range.

Bam Adebayo(MIA)
Points: 18
Rebounds: 10
Assists: 04
Steals: 01
Bam is a solid scorer, defender and rebounder whose physical tools make him a complete Big in the league at the Center position. I believe he will be in 16-22 points, 8-12 rebounds, and 1-3 blocks/steals range.

Tyler Herro(MIA)
Points: 29
Rebounds: 05
Assists: 05
Steals: 02
Guard Herro has become an elite scorer and he can end up averaging over 20 points but he is QUESTIONABLE for the game. I believe he will be in 20-25 points range IF he plays.

Jusuf Nurkic(POR)
Points: 08
Rebounds: 07
Assists: 00
Blocks: 01
Nurkic has been a steady supplier of rebounds, scoring, and has had positive imprints many times. I believe he will be in 12-17 points, 9-13 rebounds, and 1-3 blocks range.

Kyle Lowry(MIA)
Points: 10
Rebounds: 06
Assists: 03
Steals: 02
Seems like age is getting to hustling guard Kyle who is shooting below 40% from the field but he can still provide solid playmaking. I believe he will be in 14-19 points and 4-7 assists range here.

MIA vs POR DREAM11 LINEUP BALANCERS

• Max Strus(MIA): Strus had 17 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals in the last game. Max has become a solid long-range shooter while giving support in other areas. I believe he will be in 14-19 points and 4-7 rebounds range.
• Gabe Vincent(MIA): Donte had 15 points, 3 rebounds, 3 steals in the last game. Despite offensive struggles, Vincent has gotten hefty minutes off the bench. I believe he will be in 9-14 points range here.
• Shaedon Sharpe(POR): Sharpe had 13 points, 4 rebounds, 1 block in the last game. Sharpe is a sharpshooting guard who is leaving fine imprints. I believe he will be in 10-14 points and 3-5 rebounds range.
• Caleb Martin(MIA): Martin had 6 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block in the last game. Wing Caleb is a solid defender. I believe he will be in 7-10 points and 3-5 rebounds range.
• Justise Winslow(POR): Justise had 5 points, 2 assists, 2 rebounds, 1 block, 1 steal in the last game. Winslow has struggled on the scoring end but has given steady defense, rebounding, and decent playmaking. I believe he will be in 7-11 points, 4-7 rebounds, and 3-6 assists range.
• Keon Johnson(POR): Keon had 8 points, 3 assists, 2 rebounds, 1 steal in the last game. Johnson has been a solid athletic player. I believe he will be in 7-11 points range here.
• Anfernee Simons(POR): Simons missed the last two games. When he has played, he has been on fire. And IF he plays, I expect a 20+ Points and 4-7 assists range.
