Rashard Lewis refuted a report that he'd opt in with the Heat next season.
Lewis said "I don't plan on opting out at all" previously, so he's really just changing his mind. "I haven't agreed to anything," he said. "I have no idea. I haven't even talked to my agent." We can't imagine a better scenario for Lewis as he's nearing the end of his career, but if he wants to leave the Heat, that's his prerogative. Jun 17 - 8:50 AM

Rashard Lewis does not plan to opt out of his contract with the Heat after the season.

"I'm with the Miami Heat. I don't plan on opting out at all," he said. And why would he? Lewis can ride the end of the bench and be in the title hunt during his time with the team, so we fully expect him to stay true to his word.

Rashard Lewis scored 19 points on 5-of-13 shooting (including three treys) with three rebounds, one steal and one block in a start at small forward on Monday.

Lewis and Mike Miller (11 points, eight rebounds, three assists, three treys) are owners' safer bets for value during the Heat's finale, though Norris Cole certainly added his name to the list with tonight's near triple-double. If you want to dig a bit deeper, you can look at James Jones (14 points, four rebounds, three assists, two blocks, two threes) and Chris Andersen (seven points, three boards, two blocks).

Rashard Lewis scored 19 points on 7-of-11 shooting (including three treys) with one rebound and one assist in 24 minutes off the bench on Friday against the Celtics.

Lewis did well to score this much with the Big Three on the court, and he's certainly worth a look knowing that they will probably miss a few more games. Ray Allen added 17 points with three triples in the Heat's win.
Apr 12 - 10:56 PM

Rashard Lewis started for the depleted Heat on Wednesday and hit 5-of-14 shots on his way to a season-high 17 points, five rebounds and three 3-pointers in 37 minutes.

He's scored between 14 and 17 points in three of his last four games, and looks like a decent silly-season pickup at this point, as the Heat clinched home court all the way through the playoffs with tonight's win over the Wizards.
Apr 10 - 10:46 PM

The Heat got an unexpected boost from Rashard Lewis on Saturday, as he scored 14 points with two 3-pointers, seven rebounds, three assists and one steal vs. the Sixers.

Shard dropped 14 points and two 3s in Miami's last game, but it's hard to trust him with LeBron active and both Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade listed as day-to-day. Owners in standard leagues should be able to find a more trustworthy option.
Apr 6 - 10:24 PM

Rashard Lewis scored 14 points on 5-of-12 shooting (including two threes) with five rebounds, one steal and one block in 32 minutes on Friday.

With the Big Three resting from time to time now Lewis has value as a spot play, but even then he carries a ton of risk and that situation will worsen as guys return.
Apr 5 - 11:45 PM

With LeBron James rested on Sunday, Rashard Lewis started at SF and had seven points, three rebounds, three assists, one steal and four blocks.

Lewis went 1-of-6 from downtown and he'd be an interesting option if LBJ misses any more games, but that may not happen. Just keep an eye on him as we navigate the final wacky weeks of the regular season.
Mar 31 - 9:37 PM

Rashard Lewis has once again fallen out of the Heat's rotation.

Lewis will eventually return to the rotation when someone like Mike Miller (back) needs to take some time off in the regular season, but 'Shard isn't an option in standard formats even when playing.

Rashard Lewis made another start in place of Shane Battier on Tuesday, but missed his only shot and failed to score in just 15 minutes of action.

Mike Miller had 11 points, four rebounds and three 3-pointers, and if you somehow still own Lewis in a deep league, dumping him for Miller (or someone else) is a must.

Rashard Lewis hit 1-of-4 shots for two points on Saturday, playing 14 minutes in a start at small forward.

If Thursday's one-shot dud hadn't scared you away from Rashard, this ought to do the trick.

Rashard Lewis started for the injured Shane Battier and played 21 minutes, scored three points and grabbed three rebounds in Thursday's 105-100 win over the Spurs.

Mike Miller played just 17 minutes and scored two points while Norris Cole played 20 minutes and had eight points. The bottom line is that there doesn't appear to be a clear winner from the Shane Battier injury news and owners shouldn't look to find a spot-start based on Battier likely being out on Saturday.

Rashard Lewis has fallen out of the Heat rotation, but the move is not expected to be permanent.

There's a lot of talent on the bench, a lot of guys that can play any given night," Lewis said. He added that Erik Spoelstra told him that the lineup was going to be tinkered with, so Lewis' sudden increase of time on the bench is not unexpected. Although he's found his 3-point stroke again, Lewis is not a fantasy asset.

Rashard Lewis (illness) was active on Sunday, but he never left Miami's bench.

It seems Mike Miller (five points in 15 minutes) has displaced Rashard in the lineup, even though Lewis has shot 54 percent from downtown this year. Suffice to say, he shouldn't be owned in fantasy leagues.
Sat, Nov 24, 2012 10:28:00 PM

Rashard Lewis (illness) said that he would be "good to go" for Saturday's game against the Cavs.

Lewis could have a nice game against a banged up Cavs team with little depth, especially if the starters can put the game away early. All of that said, he offers little else but 3-point shooting for owners in deep leagues.
