Jovic racked up 12 points (5-14 FG, 2-8 3Pt), four rebounds and eight assists across 35 minutes during Tuesday's 116-107 loss to the Trail Blazers. Jovic's fantasy value continues to trend up and he made the most of his playmaking duties Tuesday with Tyler Herro (groin) sidelined. Through 12 January outings, Jovic has compiled averages of 13.0 points, 4.7 assists, 4.4 rebounds, 0.8 steals, 0.6 blocks and 2.0 three-pointers in 28.8 minutes. During that stretch, Jovic has produced 10th-round value in nine-category formats.

Nikola Jovic Latest News
Plays well in loss
Jovic racked up 12 points (5-14 FG, 2-8 3Pt), four rebounds and eight assists across 35 minutes during Tuesday's 116-107 loss to the Trail Blazers. Jovic's fantasy value continues to trend up and he made the most of his playmaking duties Tuesday with Tyler Herro (groin) sidelined. Through 12 January outings, Jovic has compiled averages of 13.0 points, 4.7 assists, 4.4 rebounds, 0.8 steals, 0.6 blocks and 2.0 three-pointers in 28.8 minutes. During that stretch, Jovic has produced 10th-round value in nine-category formats.
Dishes out career-high eight dimes
Jovic produced 12 points (4-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, eight assists and one block across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 117-108 loss to the Lakers. Jovic's career-high eight assists didn't come out of nowhere, as he is averaging 4.5 assists over his last 10 outings. The 21-year-old forward is also averaging 28.7 minutes per contest over that span and should continue to be one of Miami's primary playmakers in their bench unit alongside Terry Rozier.
Stuffs stat sheet in win
Jovic provided 21 points (8-12 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal across 32 minutes during Saturday's 119-98 victory over Portland. The third-year pro filled in the stat sheet while leading the Heat's bench in points. He also finished as the club's second-leading scorer behind Tyler Herro (32 points). Jovic has seen a significant uptick in playing time of late, and he has turned things around after an underwhelming start to the season. Over his last 10 outings, the 21-year-old has averaged 12.7 points, 4.6 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 0.9 steals across 26.9 minutes per game.
Logs team-high 20 points from bench
Jovic racked up 20 points (8-17 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, four assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Tuesday's 114-98 victory over the Warriors. Jovic's recent bump in minutes can be attributed to Jimmy Butler's (suspension) absence, and the former's production should give the Heat confidence that they will be able to move on without Butler if he's traded. Although Haywood Highsmith and Jaime Jaquez have also pitched ineffectively during the star's absence, Miami will likely tinker often with the rotation, resulting in more first-unit minutes for Jovic.
Back to bench against Kings
Jovic is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Kings. After scoring 17 points in Saturday's start against the Jazz, Jovic will revert to his usual role off the bench Monday and cede his spot in Miami's first unit to Jaime Jaquez. Over 14 contests as a reserve this season, Jovic is averaging 9.3 points, 3.7 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.4 threes in 23.9 minutes, which dampens his streaming appeal a bit against the Kings.
Enters starting lineup
Jovic will start Saturday's game against the Jazz. With Jimmy Butler beginning his seven-game suspension, Terry Rozier and Jovic will enter the starting lineup, shifting Duncan Robinson to the second unit. Jovic has played well in three straight games and is someone for fantasy managers to watch closely -- he averaged 11.3 points, 5.7 assists, 5.3 rebounds and 1.7 three-pointers in that span.
Ties season high with 18 points
Jovic (ankle) provided 18 points (5-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), seven rebounds and six assists across 31 minutes during Sunday's 104-100 victory over the Rockets. Jovic was able to play through an ankle injury to match a season high with both his 18 points and seven rebounds Sunday, stepping up off the bench for the Heat in the absence of All-Star forward Jimmy Butler (illness). Over his last seven games, Jovic is averaging 10.4 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 0.7 steals and 1.7 threes in 24.2 minutes. The 21-year-old big man would be worth a look in deep fantasy leagues as a decent streaming option if Butler remains sidelined for Wednesday's clash with the Pelicans.
Available Sunday
Jovic (ankle) will play during Sunday's game against the Rockets, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Jovic suffered a left ankle sprain during Thursday's game against the Magic, but he will be able to play through it Sunday. Over his last five appearances Jovic is averaging 8.2 points, 2.4 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 22.4 minutes per contest.
Expected to suit up Sunday
Jovic (ankle) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Rockets. Jovic sustained the left ankle sprain during Thursday's loss to the Magic, though he was able to play in Saturday's loss to Atlanta. The 21-year-old has appeared in five consecutive outings for the Heat (one start), during which he has averaged 8.2 points, 2.4 rebounds and 2.0 assists across 22.4 minutes per contest.
