Miami Heat forward
Jimmy Butler (calf) is out on Wednesday against the Orlando Magic due to a left calf strain. Butler did not travel with the team and is deemed day-to-day. Though it wasn't apparent at the time, the injury occurred at some point during Monday's 112-108 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Just when the Heat got
Bam Adebayo and
Tyler Herro back in the lineup together for the first time since early November, Butler now finds himself on the sidelines. The two-way superstar is registering top-50 fantasy figures, averaging 21.5 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.6 assists, and 1.1 steals with 87.9% free-throw shooting on 8.3 attempts overall. Adebayo and Herro will share the bulk of Miami's usage without Butler on Wednesday, while Butler's minutes should be divvied up amongst
Duncan Robinson,
Jaime Jaquez Jr.,
Josh Richardson, and
Caleb Martin.
