The Heat will have their full rotation available for Monday’s game against San Antonio, per Ira Winderman of The South Florida Sun Sentinel.
Starting forward Andrew Wiggins, who has missed the last eight games with sesamoiditis in his left big toe, will be active against the Spurs. Key reserve Jaime Jaquez Jr., who has been sidelined for the past two contests because of left hip soreness, will be available as well.
Miami will also have veteran wing Norman Powell back in action after he missed Saturday’s loss in Houston due to left calf tightness, Winderman notes.
As Winderman observes, the stretch run of the season will be important for all three players. Wiggins could be a free agent this summer if he declines his $30.2MM player option for 2026/27; Powell will be a free agent unless he signs a veteran extension before July 1; and Jaquez will be eligible for a rookie scale extension this offseason.
Wiggins has averaged 15.9 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.0 block on .474/.399/.788 shooting in 57 games this season (31.0 minutes per contest). Jaquez is a Sixth Man of the Year contender, having averaged 15.0 PPG, 5.1 RPG and 4.8 APG on .500/.281/.766 shooting in 64 appearances (28.6 MPG).
Powell, a first-time All-Star this season, is the Heat’s leading scorer at 22.3 PPG. He has also contributed 3.6 RPG, 2.6 APG and 1.2 SPG on .473/.384/.823 shooting splits in 52 games (30.1 MPG).
Miami is currently 38-33, the No. 9 seed in the Eastern Conference, but the team is only 1.5 games behind No. 5 Toronto with three weeks remaining in the regular season.
