Jimmy Butler (neck) ruled out Tuesday for Heat in Toronto
Miami Heat guard/forward Jimmy Butler (neck soreness) is out Tuesday against the Toronto Raptors.
What It Means:
Butler has now been downgraded from questionable to out after being added to the injury report as probable to begin the day. Max Strus will likely replace Butler in the starting lineup and there will be additional scoring opportunities for Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo. Caleb Martin, Kyle Lowry (knee), and Kevin Love will also have more minutes available.
Martin ($5,100) and Bam ($8,100) are now numberFire's No. 3 and No. 4 point-per-dollar values, respectively, for Tuesday's six-game slate. Adebayo is also our fourth-highest projected scorer at 43.6 FanDuel points.
