The Miami Heat will start Dru Smith alongside Norman Powell, Andrew Wiggins, Nikola Jović, and Bam Adebayo in Wednesday’s game against the Spurs. With Tyler Herro sidelined due to offseason foot/ankle surgery, the Heat are experimenting with different lineups during the preseason. Smith, having overcome knee and Achilles injuries, aims to secure a starting role as the team searches for their fifth starter. Fantasy managers should monitor Smith’s performance as the lineup solidifies.

Dru Smith, cleared to play after recovering from a ruptured Achilles, is set to participate in the preseason with the Miami Heat.
