Heat's Gabe Madsen: Back with Miami
Madsen agreed to an Exhibit 10 contract with the Heat on Thursday, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.
Madsen was waived at the end of September to make room for the acquisition of Precious Achiuwa, and he's now being brought back in on an Exhibit 10 deal. Madsen will in all likelihood end up on Miami's G League affiliate, the Sioux Falls Skyforce, for the 2025-26 campaign.

Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Productive off bench
Jaquez finished with 19 points (6-8 FG, 7-7 FT), three rebounds and one assist across 28 minutes of Wednesday's 112-107 preseason loss to the Spurs.
After starting the first two preseason games, Jaquez came off the bench Wednesday with the Heat giving Dru Smith a look in the starting lineup. Regardless of whether he starts or not, Jaquez has been a bright spot in the preseason, and it seems like coach Erik Spoelstra is going to rely on him quite a bit in the absence of Tyler Herro (ankle).

Heat's Kasparas Jakucionis: Plays well Wednesday
Jakucionis produced eight points (2-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 10 assists, two steals and one block across 25 minutes of Wednesday's 112-107 preseason loss to the Spurs.
After a strong showing in the Summer League with averages of 15.0 points, 3.7 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.7 steals per game, Jakucionis made a solid impression in his first preseason contest. He got a late start to training camp due to a wrist injury, but he had no restrictions Wednesday. With Tyler Herro (ankle) sidelined to begin the season, Jakucionis could be in the mix to see backcourt minutes right away if he continues to play like this.

Heat's Kel'el Ware: Keeps rolling in preseason
Ware generated 29 points (12-19 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block across 26 minutes of Wednesday's 112-107 preseason loss to San Antonio.
Ware has come off the bench in each of Miami's three preseason games, with Nikola Jovic and Bam Adebayo filling the starting power forward and center slots. Despite his role with the second unit, Ware has been dominant. He's averaging 19.0 points and 11.3 rebounds per game. The 21-year-old started in 36 of 64 regular-season games as a rookie last season.

After missing Monday's preseason game against the Bucks and then returning to practice Tuesday, Jakucionis will be available Wednesday to make his rookie debut in the preseason. The Illinois product played in three games during the Las Vegas Summer League for Miami, averaging 15.0 points, 3.7 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.7 steals per game, shooting 44.8 percent from the field and 35.3 percent from three-point range.

Larsson (quadriceps) is available for Wednesday's preseason game against the Spurs, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Larsson has overcome a quadriceps injury that he suffered during this past summer's EuroBasket run. With Tyler Herro (ankle) on the shelf, Larsson will be trying to make an impression this preseason in an effort to be part of Miami's Opening Night rotation.

Heat's Terry Rozier: Won't play Wednesday
Rozier (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's preseason game against the Spurs, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Heat's Davion Mitchell: Ruled out for Wednesday
Mitchell (calf) is out for Wednesday's preseason game against the Spurs, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Although he was able to participate in Tuesday's practice in a limited capacity, Mitchell is not ready to make his preseason debut Wednesday. His next chance to play arrives Sunday in Orlando. Mitchell remains likely to open the regular season as the top point guard in the absence of Tyler Herro (ankle).

Heat's Kasparas Jakucionis: Practices Tuesday
Jakucionis (wrist) participated in practice Tuesday, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Jakucionis didn't play during Monday's preseason game against the Bucks due to his wrist injury. He appears to be trending in the right direction after getting in some work during Tuesday's practice. The next chance for him to suit up and play will be Wednesday against the Spurs.

Heat's Pelle Larsson: Limited at Tuesday's practice
Larsson (quadriceps) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Larsson will be looking to make his first preseason appearance Wednesday against the Spurs, and he can be deemed questionable due to a quadriceps injury for that game. The 2024 second-rounder is battling mainly with Jaime Jaquez for reserve minutes behind Norman Powell and Andrew Wiggins.

Heat's Simone Fontecchio: Doesn't practice Tuesday
Fontecchio (leg) was not on the practice floor Tuesday, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Heat's Terry Rozier: Still not practicing
Rozier (hamstring) didn't practice Tuesday, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Rozier remains hobbled by a hamstring injury, meaning he can be tentatively considered doubtful for Wednesday's preseason game against the Spurs. After falling out of Miami's rotation at times a year ago, the veteran guard is ticketed for a reserve role despite the absence of Tyler Herro (ankle) to begin the season.

Heat's Davion Mitchell: Limited at practice
Mitchell (calf) was a limited participant at Tuesday's practice, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.
Mitchell has missed the first two preseason games for Miami, but the guard remains day-to-day. For now, he can be considered questionable for Wednesday's preseason contest against the Spurs.

Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Starts another preseason game
Jaquez finished with nine points (3-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists and two turnovers across 23 minutes of Monday's 103-93 preseason loss to the Bucks.
Notably, Jaquez has started both preseason games for the Heat so far. With the team aiming to play at a faster pace, the Heat are leaning into smaller lineups so far, which benefits guys like Jaquez and Nikola Jovic. With Tyler Herro (ankle) sidelined to begin the season, Jaquez appears to be picking up steam as a candidate to start on Opening Night.

Heat's Keshad Johnson: Grabs seven boards in loss
Johnson logged eight points (2-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-8 FT), seven rebounds and five assists across 25 minutes in Monday's 103-93 preseason loss to the Bucks.
Johnson was efficient from the field in limited attempts but struggled from the charity stripe. Still, the 24-year-old forward impacted the game in other ways, finishing with a bench-high five assists. The Heat exercised Johnson's team option for the 2025-26 campaign in June, and he's expected to provide emergency depth for the team this season.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: Dishes out seven assists in defeat
Jovic supplied nine points (3-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, seven assists and two steals across 23 minutes in Monday's 103-93 preseason loss to the Bucks.
Jovic struggled from beyond the arc in his second preseason start, though he still stuffed the stat sheet and led all players in assists. The 22-year-old forward also matched the game high in steals. He'll continue competing with Kel'el Ware this preseason for a starting spot alongside Bam Adebayo.

Heat's Norman Powell: Scores 18 in preseason loss
Powell totaled 18 points (6-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds and one assist over 16 minutes in Monday's 103-93 preseason loss to the Bucks.
Powell made the most of his limited minutes, matching Kel'el Ware with a game-high 18 points. It was a notable improvement from his team debut Saturday, when he finished with five points (2-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt) in 13 minutes against the Magic. His preseason workload remains to be seen, but Powell figures to be a key offensive piece for the Heat to open the regular season, especially with Tyler Herro (foot/ankle) sidelined for an extended period.
