Ware is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pistons.

EDGE Analysis

The rookie big man will supplant Haywood Highsmith in the starting five Wednesday. Across his last 10 appearances in the first unit, Ware has averaged 8.8 points, 9.6 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.2 blocks and 0.8 steals in 27.2 minutes.

Ware contributed 10 points (5-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt), six rebounds, one block and one steal in 19 minutes during Monday's 116-95 loss to New York.

EDGE Analysis

Ware returned to the second unit in Monday's contest with Haywood Highsmith starting, going on to lead all Heat bench players in rebounds while finishing as one of five Miami players with a double-digit point total. Ware has reached double figures in scoring in six outings when coming off the bench.

Ware is not in Miami's starting lineup against New York on Monday, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ware is coming off a double-double against the Grizzlies on Saturday. He has started in all but one game he's played in since Jan. 21, but he'll come off the bench Monday while Jaime Jaquez enters the Heat's starting five. Ware should still see meaningful minutes in a reserve role behind Bam Adebayo.

Ware ended Saturday's 125-91 loss to the Grizzlies with 19 points (8-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-3 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and one steal over 36 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

The Heat looked overmatched in this 34-point loss to the Grizzlies, but Ware was one of the few standout performers for Miami. The rookie out of Indiana posted his first double-double since Feb. 23, when he supplied12 points and 12 boards against the Bucks. Ware is certainly more valuable in dynasty formats than in standard leagues, but he will continue to have a decent floor as long as he remains in a starting role, which is likely to be the case for the rest of the season.

EDGE Analysis

Ware came off the bench in Friday's loss to the Celtics, but he's back in the Heat's starting lineup alongside Bam Adebayo and Andrew Wiggins in the frontcourt. Ware has averaged 5.0 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.0 blocks and 1.0 steals over 20.5 minutes per game over his last four outings.

EDGE Analysis

Ware has started in every game he has appeared in since Jan. 21. The rookie first rounder will shift to a reserve role Friday as head coach Erik Spoelstra goes with Bam Adebayo at the five with Jaime Jaquez and Andrew Wiggins rounding out the Heat's starting frontcourt.

Ware (knee) tallied seven points (3-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 12 rebounds, two steals and two blocks across 26 minutes Saturday in the Heat's 114-109 loss to the Bulls.

EDGE Analysis

Back in action after a three-game absence due to a left knee sprain, Ware took back his spot in the starting five alongside Bam Adebayo. The rookie took a back seat on the offensive end to fellow starters Adebayo, Tyler Herro and Andrew Wiggins, but Ware piled up some useful numbers defensively. Since moving into a starting role Jan. 21, Ware is now averaging 10.6 points, 10.1 rebounds, 1.3 blocks, 1.3 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.7 three-pointers in 29.2 minutes while shooting 51.8 percent from the field and 76.2 percent from the free-throw line over 19 games.

Ware (knee) is available for Saturday's game against the Bulls, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ware has been absent from the Heat's last three games due to a left knee sprain. He's progressed enough in his recovery to return Saturday, which will likely mean that Kevin Love goes back to the bench. Since entering the starting lineup Jan. 21, Ware has averaged 10.8 points on 52.2 percent shooting, 9.9 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.3 blocks over 29.4 minutes per game.

Ware (knee) is listed as probable for Saturday's game versus the Bulls.

EDGE Analysis

Ware is expected to return to action Saturday after missing Miami's last three contests. The rookie big man will likely reclaim his starting spot from Kevin Love if he's upgraded to available.

Ware (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Timberwolves.

EDGE Analysis

Ware will miss a third straight game Friday for the Heat, as he continues to deal with a sprained left knee. Miami will likely continue to lean on Kevin Love, Kyle Anderson, Pelle Larsson and Haywood Highsmith in the frontcourt.
