The Miami Heat’s real-life season is firmly underway, so that means that the Fantasy NBA Season must be in full tilt as well.
Nearly every fantasy basketball league is heading into Week 9 of its regular season on Monday, December 13. This means that most fantasy managers are roughly halfway through their season and are ready to take stock of their roster to ensure a successful playoff push.
Could this mean adding red-hot free agents like Caleb Martin? Let’s take a look.
With the Miami Heat playing a four-game week in Week 9, managers could look to add a Heat player off of the waiver wire to ramp up their games played for a weekly matchup.
Now, this would have been a surefire add before he entered the NBA’s Health And Safety Protocols, but still may be something to keep an eye on.
Getting to it though, Miami has been an interesting team from a fantasy perspective. Carried by intense steal and free throw numbers, Jimmy Butler leads the team in total value, per Basketball Monster.
Butler ranks 10th this season on an 8-category per game basis. Just like he is in reality, Jimmy leads them from a fantasy production perspective too but, of course, he has a little help.
