Heat's Bez Mbeng: Adds 11 points in preseason opener
Mbeng logged 11 points (5-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and two steals across 18 minutes in Saturday's 129-105 preseason win over the Raptors.
Mbeng didn't see the floor in the first half but was effective in the second. The 23-year-old was one of seven Heat players to score in double figures and also tied for the team high in steals. Mbeng is signed to an Exhibit 10 contract and will continue trying to make a positive impression in the preseason.

Heat's Pelle Larsson: Chips in 13 points in preseason win
Larsson supplied 13 points (3-3 FG, 7-7 FT), two rebounds, two assists and two steals across 11 minutes in Saturday's 129-105 preseason win over the Raptors.
Larsson came off the bench and only played in the first half Saturday, though he was productive in his limited run. The 25-year-old swingman finished as the Heat's second-leading scorer while tying for the team lead in steals. He's expected to play a sizable role with Miami's second unit and could take on increased ball-handling duties in his third year in the league.

Heat's Klay Thompson: Held scoreless in preseason opener
Thompson recorded zero points (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and two rebounds across 13 minutes in Saturday's 129-105 preseason win over the Raptors.
Thompson only played in the first half of Saturday's contest and didn't offer much in his preseason debut for the Heat. He started Miami's preseason opener and is the favorite to get the starting nod at shooting guard when the regular season begins.

Heat's Giannis Antetokounmpo: Perfect from field in preseason opener
Antetokounmpo scored nine points (3-3 FG, 3-4 FT) while adding four rebounds and seven assists in Saturday's 129-105 preseason win over the Raptors.
Antetokounmpo also committed two turnovers, but the star guard delivered a dominant performance in a brief 14-minute cameo, showing he'll be the gravitational force on offense for the Heat when he's on the court. Expect the Heat to manage Antetokounmpo's workload carefully during the preseason with an eye to have him in top-notch condition for the regular-season opener against the Timberwolves on Wednesday, Oct. 21.

Heat's Bam Adebayo: Good to go Saturday
Adebayo will play in Saturday's preseason game against the Raptors, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.
It was reported Friday that Adebayo was expected to play Saturday, and he's since been cleared to suit up for Miami's preseason opener. The big man shot a career-worst 44.2 percent from the field last season but averaged a double-double for the fourth time in his career. Over 73 regular-season appearances in 2025-26, Adebayo averaged 20.1 points, 10.0 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.9 combined steals-plus-blocks in 32.4 minutes per showing.

Heat's Giannis Antetokounmpo: Cleared to play Saturday
Antetokounmpo will play in Saturday's preseason game against the Raptors, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.
Antetokounmpo is set to make his Heat debut in the team's preseason opener Saturday. The two-time MVP has been a full go in training camp after appearing in just 36 regular-season games with the Bucks in 2025-26, when he averaged 27.6 points, 9.8 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 1.6 combined steals-plus-blocks in 28.9 minutes per tilt.

Heat's Myron Gardner: Moves past ankle injury
Gardner said Monday that he's "back now" and "ready to get going" after missing the Las Vegas Summer League with an ankle injury, Ricardo Urrusuno of Lemon City Live reports.
Gardner also said that he spent time in Miami recovering this offseason, and he appears to be at full strength ahead of Saturday's preseason opener against Toronto. The 25-year-old is set to compete for a spot in Miami's rotation this season.

Heat's Giannis Antetokounmpo: Likely to play Saturday
Antetokounmpo is expected to play in Saturday's preseason opener against Toronto, per Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel.
The superstar forward is in line to make his highly anticipated first appearance in a Heat uniform Saturday. Antetokounmpo is looking to stay on the floor more often in his Miami debut season after logging a career-low 36 regular-season appearances for the Bucks in 2025-26.

Heat's Bam Adebayo: Expected to play Saturday
Adebayo is expected to play in Saturday's preseason opener against Toronto, per Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel.
With Giannis Antetokounmpo also in line to suit up, fantasy managers should get their first taste of Miami's new-look frontcourt Saturday. Adebayo has averaged at least 18.0 points, 9.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.0 steals in six straight seasons for the Heat.

Heat's Keshad Johnson: Tweaks hamstring
Johnson will be sidelined a few weeks with a right hamstring strain, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.
This is a tough blow for Johnson as it rules him out for the entire preseason. The forward is on a two-way contract and is expected to feature for Miami's G League affiliate.

Heat's Andrew Wiggins: Meshing well on revamped roster
Wiggins' versatility should allow him to fit comfortably alongside Giannis Antetokounmpo and Miami's other high-usage players this season, according to Heat reporter Zachary Weinberger.
Head coach Erik Spoelstra praised Wiggins' ability to adapt to playing alongside other stars, noting that the veteran has become increasingly effective playing off the ball despite previously serving as a No. 1 option. Spoelstra also highlighted Wiggins' ability to defend opposing teams' top players while remaining capable of creating with the ball, giving Miami flexibility in how it utilizes him within its revamped lineup.

Heat's Ryan Conwell: Makes strong impression on team
Conwell has made a strong early impression on teammate Klay Thompson during his first training camp with Miami, according to Heat reporter Brendan Tobin.
Thompson praised Conwell's conditioning, defense and left-handed jumper, noting that the rookie picked up full court defensively during practice and had previously beaten him in a shooting drill this summer. The No. 37 overall pick averaged 18.8 points while attempting 9.6 three-pointers per game during his final collegiate season at Louisville, and his combination of shooting and defensive effort could help him compete for a rotation role as a rookie. The hip issue that flared up during Summer League is seemingly behind him.

Heat's Dru Smith: Tweaks right calf
Smith will miss a couple weeks with a strained right calf, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
This is a tough blow for the point guard who was penciled in as the top backup behind Davion Mitchell. If he indeed misses a couple weeks, he could be back in time for their final preseason contest Oct. 16.

Heat's Bam Adebayo: Goes through practice
Adebayo (back) practiced in full Tuesday, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
After a mild back issue flared up at the end of the 2025-26 season, Adebayo is at full strength to start training camp. He was notably spotted battling with Giannis Antetokounmpo, calling it a good way to "sharpen your skills."

Heat's Giannis Antetokounmpo: Full go at training camp
Antetokounmpo (knee) was a full go at training camp Tuesday, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Antetokounmpo had no limitations after missing the end of the 2025-26 campaign with a nagging knee issue. He was spotted going through some one-on-one drills with Bam Adebayo in what was described as a "surreal experience" by coach Erik Spoelstra.

Heat's Lester Quinones: Signs with Miami
Quinones signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Heat on Monday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
Quinones is expected to compete for a spot on Miami's regular-season roster. The organization also owns his G League rights, so he'll likely join the Sioux Falls Skyforce if he's waived by Miami. Over 50 appearances for the G League's Osceola Magic in 2025-26, Quinones averaged 22.8 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 0.9 steals across 31.1 minutes per contest.

Heat's Pelle Larsson: Could take on increased on-ball duties
Larsson said Monday that he's prepared for the season and expects to play some point guard, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Larsson was a regular in the starting lineup last season, averaging 11.4 points, 3.5 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 0.7 steals across 26.4 minutes per game in 70 regular-season appearances (54 starts). Although the Heat are projected to start Davion Mitchell, Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bam Adebayo, Larsson figures to handle sizable playing time whether he starts or not. The Heat gave up Tyler Herro, Kasparas Jakucionis and Jaime Jaquez as part of the trade for Antetokounmpo, leaving them with fewer ballhandlers ahead of the 2026-27 season. Antetokounmpo should have the ball in his hands often, and Mitchell is likely to see plenty of on-ball responsibilities. However, it wouldn't be surprising to see Larsson's role expand this season.

Heat's Dennis Smith: Gets contract from Miami
Smith agreed to a contract with Miami on Sunday, Chris Haynes of NBA TV reports.
The specifics of the deal haven't been made public, and it's possible it's strictly a training camp deal. Under any circumstance, the veteran has a legitimate chance of being on the active roster come the start of the 2026-27 campaign. The 2017 No. 9 overall pick has bounced around the league since being drafted, making stops in Dallas, New York, Detroit, Portland, Charlotte and Brooklyn. In 326 regular-season games combined for those clubs, he averaged 9.7 points, 3.0 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1.2 steals. If Smith lands a spot in the Heat's rotation, he may play sparingly, likely seeing the floor only when his defensive skills are needed.

Heat's Ian Schieffelin: Signs with Miami
Schieffelin signed an Exhibit 10 deal with the Heat on Friday.
It's unclear if the Heat will bring him to training camp or waive him quickly to secure his G League rights. Schieffelin appeared in five Summer League games with Miami across both the San Francisco California Classic and the Las Vegas Summer League, averaging 8.4 points and 3.6 rebounds while shooting 46.7 percent from the field.

Heat's Bez Mbeng: Claimed off waivers by Miami
Mbeng was claimed off waivers Tuesday by the Heat, who intend to sign him to an Exhibit 10 deal, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.
Mbeng presumably signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Hornets before they waived him Sunday, and he's now expected to compete for a spot on Miami's regular-season roster. The 23-year-old guard appeared in 15 regular-season games (five starts) with Utah last season, averaging 8.1 points, 4.1 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 2.3 steals while shooting 50.0 percent from the field in 32.8 minutes per showing.
