McRoberts (illness) will start Sunday against the Grizzlies. McRoberts came down with an illness Saturday and was considered doubtful to play as of Sunday afternoon. It appears he'll play through the illness, however, and he'll start alongside Luol Deng and Chris Bosh in the frontcourt.

McRoberts is dealing with an illness and is considered doubtful to play Sunday against Memphis, Joseph Goodman of the Miami Herald reports. At this time, it appears McRoberts will not play Sunday, but that could change as tip off approaches. With Luol Deng (hand) questionable, the Heat may be shorthanded at the forward position. Expect Shawne Williams to see an uptick in minutes after playing just 14 against Milwaukee on Friday.

McRoberts started at power forward, replacing Shawne Williams, and contributed four points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), five assists and three steals in 21 minutes during Wednesday's loss to the Hawks. McRoberts has now played at least 21 minutes in his last four games. This should continue to increase and thus, he should be given consideration in 12-14 team leagues for scoring and out of position assists.

McRoberts will make his first start with the Heat on Wednesday. McRoberts has finally played himself into the starting lineup, after coming off the bench so far. He will be replacing Shawne Williams, and going forward, McRoberts' fantasy stock should be trending up.

McRoberts logged arguably his best game of the season Sunday against the Knicks, posting seven points, three rebounds, four assists, one steal, one block, and two three-pointers in 25 minutes of action. McRoberts has yet to return to his old form ever since returning from his injury, but patience will be a virtue for owners in 14-man leagues. His multi-category production is certainly appealing, and once he's back to logging 30 minutes a game, he'll be worth owning in standard leagues. However, in the meantime, expect him to continue his limited production as he makes his way back to 100 percent.

McRoberts (foot) returned Thursday against the Clippers after missing three games. McRoberts was only dealing with a blister on his foot, but had missed some time last week. He returned in the loss, only playing 14 minutes and scoring just two points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), while pulling down two rebounds and finishing with one assist and a steal. McRoberts would have played more minutes if Luol Deng would have been out with a wrist injury, but Deng started the game.

McRoberts (foot) will play Thursday against the Clippers, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reports. McRoberts was considered a game-time decision, but has now been officially ruled in for Thursday's contest. Through seven games this season, he's averaging 2.6 points, 2.7 boards, and 0.3 blocks in 12 minutes. He could have seen more minutes if Luol Deng (wrist) was unable to go, but now that he has also officially in as well, not much beyond his averages this season can be expected.

McRoberts is considered a game-time call Thursday against the Clippers, Shandel Richardson of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. McRoberts, who was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, has missed the last three games with a painful blister on his foot. He'll test out how it feels in warmups before an official decision is made.

McRoberts (foot) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. He has missed three straight games with the foot injury, but it is looking like he should be able to take the court Thursday against the Clippers.

McRoberts (foot) will not play Monday against the Nets, Tim Bontemps of the New York Post reports. McRoberts will join Dwyane Wade (hamstring) in missing his third straight game after both players sat out Friday and Sunday. McRoberts' injury is not considered serious - he's dealing with a blister on his foot - but it's a situation that requires a bit of time to recover, as it could easily be re-aggravated. Expect to see more of Shawne Williams, who has scored in double-figures in each of the last three games.
