Waiters totaled 19 points (7-12 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four assists and a steal in 16 minutes during Wednesday's win over Charlotte.
EDGE Analysis
Waiters was electric Wednesday, leading the team in points and drilling 80 percent of his shots from behind the arc. The veteran guard will hope to bounce back from an injury-plagued 2018-19 campaign in which he averaged 12.0 points, 2.8 assists and 2.6 rebounds in 25.9 minutes per game across 44 contests. Waiters hasn't played more than 46 games in any of his past three seasons, so, while he has the proven ability to score in bunches, he likely can't be considered more than a late-round addition.

Waiters collected 17 points (6-16 FG, 5-12 3Pt), four rebounds and two assists across 33 minutes in Sunday's 117-109 loss to the Raptors.
EDGE Analysis
Waiters made six shots on Sunday, five of them being behind the arc, which is where he was shooting from more often than not. His inefficiency inside and plethora of missed threes left more to be desired, especially in a critical game that went to overtime.

Waiters scored 22 points (8-17 FG, 6-12 3Pt, 0-2 FT) in 33 minutes during Friday's 111-109 loss to the Timberwolves.
EDGE Analysis
Waiters had been considered probable after having a precautionary MRI on his left knee following Wednesday's loss to the Celtics. While his ailing knee didn't stop him from matching his season high in made threes while scoring 20-plus points for the fourth time in the last six games, Waiters didn't contribute in any of the other categories. With the Heat in need of a strong finish in order to make the playoffs, expect Waiters to remain as aggressive as ever across the final three regular season matchups.

EDGE Analysis

Waiters finished with 28 points 11-23 FG, 6-16 3Pt), six assists,s three rebounds, two steals, and one block in 37 minutes during Saturday's 100-92 victory over the Knicks.
EDGE Analysis
Waiters topped out with a season-high 28 points in Saturday's victory, helping the Heat regain a spot in the top-eight. Waiters has had sneaky value over the past few weeks but is still only rostered in 30 percent of all leagues. With only a few games left to round out the season, the Heat are going to need to win as many as they can and it would appear Waiters is going to continue to see significant playing time all the way to the finish line.

Waiters amassed a season-high 26 points (10-18 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 1-1 FT) to go with two assists, one rebound and one steal in 29 minutes Tuesday in the Heat's 104-99 loss to the Magic.
EDGE Analysis
The ample scoring and three-point production was nice, but Waiters' lagging numbers in nearly every other category illustrates his shortcomings as a fantasy option when his shot isn't falling. Prior to Tuesday, Waiters hadn't been particularly efficient in March, converting at just a 41.5 percent clip from the field.

Waiters generated 15 points (6-10 FG, 3-6 3pt, 0-2 FT), three rebounds and three assists in 24 minutes Sunday against Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
Waiters bounced back after a rough two-game stretch, topping double-digits for the 13th time this year. When he's shooting the ball well, Waiters is a decent volume-scoring based option for standard formats, however he is inconsistent and does little outside of scoring the ball.
