The Heat have several players on their injury report, with the most significant name being Andrew Wiggins. The newly-acquired forward is dealing with a hamstring injury and didn’t join the team for its three-game road trip.

Wiggins has played in 15 games for his new team, averaging 19.9 points, 4.1 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.1 blocks. Barring the rebounding number, all are higher than what he averaged in 43 games with Golden State this season.
