Small Forward - Jimmy Butler (Miami Heat)
Butler has not started the season particularly well, but has finally started to find his rhythm of late, and will be expected to deliver against the Washington Wizards.
He scored 26 points in his last match and is averaging 13 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists in the 2020-21 season. The Wizards don't have an accomplished wing defender in their ranks, and that offers Jimmy Butler an excellent opportunity to stuff the stat sheet.

Power Forward - Rui Hachimura (Washington Wizards)
Young gun Rui Hachimura has looked in good touch at the power forward position for the Washington Wizards. The sophomore is averaging 13 points and 3 rebounds per game, while also contributing on the defensive end.
Hachimura will have to be at his best against a potent Miami Heat outfit and will also have to step up on the other end of the court for the Wizards, who continue to look shaky defensively.
Center - Bam Adebayo (Miami Heat)
After having a stellar 2019-20 campaign, Miami Heat big Bam Adebayo is expected to have another strong season. He has started off on a bright note, and has averaged 18 points, 8 rebounds, and 5 assists per game so far.
The Kentucky alumnus has been a menace on both ends of the floor and has dominated his matchups. He will come up against Thomas Bryant on Saturday, and fans can expect him to record another double-double stat line.
