Heat's Duncan Robinson: Muted production Wednesday
Rotowire
Robinson racked up zero points (0-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt) and one assist across 20 minutes during Wednesday's 108-101 victory over Philadelphia.
Robinson was tabbed as probable before Wednesday's contest while dealing with a hip injury, but the final stat line was disappointing for fantasy managers who trusted in him. The veteran sharpshooter has scored in single digits in each of his last three games, and while he'll remain valuable in fantasy as long as he continues in a starting role, he's averaging a mere 5.3 points while shooting 33.3 percent from the floor in that three-game stretch.

Rotowire
Robinson (illness) is available for Monday's matchup against Orlando, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Heat's Duncan Robinson: Downgraded to questionable
Rotowire
Robinson (illness) is now questionable for Monday's game against the Magic, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Robinson is a late addition to Miami's injury report with an illness Monday, which doesn't bode well for his chances of suiting up. With Jimmy Butler (suspension) and Jaime Jaquez (illness) both out against Orlando, the Heat could be forced to lean on Haywood Highsmith and Nikola Jovic for heavy playing time.

Heat's Duncan Robinson: Goes off for 22 points
Rotowire
Robinson had 22 points (8-15 FG, 6-12 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists and one block in 35 minutes during Tuesday's 116-107 loss to Portland.
Tyler Herro missed this game with a groin issue and is day-to-day moving forward. Miami are now starting Kel'el Ware and Bam Adebayo together in the frontcourt, so they will need to rely heavily on the floor spacing Robinson provides. In his last two outings, Robinson averaged 21.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 5.5 three-pointers.

Heat's Duncan Robinson: Sinks five triples Sunday
Rotowire
Robinson registered 21 points (8-12 FG, 5-7 3Pt), five rebounds and two assists over 28 minutes during Sunday's 128-107 win over San Antonio.
Making his 21st start of the season, Robinson submitted his first game with at least 20 points since a Dec. 8 win over Cleveland to surprisingly lead a healthy Heat starting lineup Sunday. Head coach Erik Spoelstra appears to be mixing and matching his starting shooting guards between Robinson and Terry Rozier on a regular basis, and Robinson has been serviceable when called upon to handle the role. The veteran sharpshooter has averaged 12.1 points, 3.2 assists, 2.5 rebounds and 2.6 threes in 25.5 minutes while shooting 39.9 percent from long range as a member of Miami's first unit.

Rotowire
Robinson contributed 12 points (4-6 FG, 4-5 3Pt), one rebound, eight assists and one steal in 21 minutes during Tuesday's 114-98 win over the Warriors.
Although Robinson has operated off the bench for three straight games, his sharpshooting skills can still have a significant impact. If Jimmy Butler (suspension) is traded, Robinson and Terry Rozier are both expected to benefit. Robinson's value in category leagues will also increase.

Heat's Duncan Robinson: Ruled out Sunday
Rotowire
Robinson (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Rockets, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Robinson sustained right foot inflammation in Saturday's loss to Atlanta, during which he posted 16 points (6-14 FG, 4-10 3Pt), five rebounds, five assists and two steals in 38 minutes. With the sharpshooter sidelined, Alec Burks and Terry Rozier are candidates for increased roles.

Heat's Duncan Robinson: Solid showing Saturday
Rotowire
Robinson chipped in 16 points (6-14 FG, 4-10 3Pt), five rebounds, five assists and two steals in 38 minutes during Saturday's 120-110 loss to Atlanta.
Robinson went scoreless in the loss to the Magic on Dec. 26, but that was an anomaly, and he bounced back admirably here. Robinson has scored over 15 points in two of his last three games, but his productivity has been very consistent of late with double-digit points in all but two of his previous nine appearances. Robinson's fantasy value will remain on the rise as long as he remains in a starting role.

Heat's Duncan Robinson: Zero points in win
Rotowire
Robinson contributed zero points (0-3 FG, 0-3 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist in 18 minutes during Thursday's 89-88 victory over the Magic.
For the first time this season, Robinson went scoreless for the Heat. Miami was able to get the one-point win over the Magic on Thursday, but Robinson missed all three shots he took in the 18 minutes he played, which is a significant concern for a player who started the last 16 games and averages 11.0 points per contest.

Heat's Duncan Robinson: Plays well in win
Rotowire
Robinson finished with 17 points (6-11 FG, 5-10 3Pt), one rebound, four assists and one steal over 25 minutes during Monday's 110-95 win over the Nets.
For the fifth time this season, Robinson knocked down at least five triples. He's had a strong couple weeks, posting averages of 14.7 points, 3.1 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 3.1 three-pointers over his last seven contests. He's about as reliable as it gets as a three-point specialist in fantasy.

Heat's Duncan Robinson: Strong from deep Monday
Rotowire
Robinson posted 13 points (5-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt), one assist and one steal over 24 minutes during Monday's 125-124 overtime loss to the Pistons.
Robinson provided a lift beyond the arc in Monday's marathon game, finishing as one of two Heat players with three or more threes while ending as one of six players with a double-digit point total. Robinson has connected on three or more threes in eight contests, and he has reached double figures in scoring in three of his last four outings.

Heat's Duncan Robinson: Wakes up with 19 points
Rotowire
Robinson finished with 19 points (7-12 FG, 5-8 3Pt), two rebounds, four assists and one steal across 29 minutes during Saturday's 121-111 win over the Suns.
Miami's decision to move Terry Rozier to the second unit is still a bit of a head-scratcher, but Robinson proved his worthiness as a starter with a productive night of sharpshooting. The frequent three-point threat drilled five shots from downtown in the win and was a perfect complement to Tyler Herro in the backcourt. There's no sign of a switch from the current rotation, so Robinson deserves a closer look moving forward.
