Alec Burks: Breaking News

Does not feature in Game 2

Burks did not see the floor in Wednesday's Game 2 loss to Cleveland. After logging 15 minutes in Game 1, the Heat replaced him with Davion Mitchell in the starting lineup. Burks' minutes have been trending in the wrong direction for a couple of weeks, and it would be a surprise to see him in the rotation for Game 3.

Moving to bench

Burks will come off the bench for Wednesday's Game 2 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs against the Cavaliers, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports. Burks started Game 1 and both of Miami's Play-In games, but he totaled 43 minutes across the three contests and wasn't part of the Heat's closing lineup. Davion Mitchell will leapfrog him in the starting lineup for Game 2, but still expect Burks to see a similar workload.

Muted performance in loss

Burks closed Sunday's 121-100 loss to Cleveland in Game 1 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs with six points (2-3 FG, 2-3 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists across 15 minutes. Burks logged 15 minutes in the Game 1 loss to the Cavaliers on Sunday and didn't make much of an impact, despite an efficient shooting performance. Miami will need more from the veteran guard if the team hopes to have any chance of pulling off the upset over this top-seeded Cleveland squad in the first round.
