The Heat will use the same starting five in Game 2 as they did in Game 1.
Coach Erik Spoelstra is sticking with his "big" lineup that features LeBron James at the small forward spot. The starters are Mario Chalmers, Dwyane Wade, James, Udonis Haslem and Chris Bosh. Chalmers was a +16 in just 22 minutes on Sunday night. Apr 23 - 5:53 PM

Udonis Haslem will start at power forward for the Heat on Sunday.

Shane Battier will come off the bench, so those that picked Miami to cover the 13.5-point spread tonight should adjust accordingly. The Bucks might be one of the biggest underdogs in the history of the NBA Playoffs after Miami went 30-2 after the All-Star break, which is the best ever.

Udonis Haslem (ankle) will not travel to Cleveland for Monday's game.

It will be his fourth game missed and the Heat haven't exactly been bashful about resting their players. He has no fantasy value and should be viewed as doubtful for Wednesday's game, as well.
Apr 14 - 4:31 PM

Udonis Haslem (ankle) will sit out again vs. the Bulls on Sunday.

This makes three straight DNPs for Haslem. His absence sounds mostly precautionary, but he's been playing through sore feet and the Heat can't afford to have him limited during the playoffs.

Udonis Haslem (ankle, rest) will not play against Boston on Friday.

Haslem was also out on Wednesday, so although his absence Friday is more for precautionary purposes, it's worth noting he was out of action earlier in the week as well. Rashard Lewis, Joel Anthony and Chris Andersen are all candidates to pick up a little time.

Udonis Haslem (ankle) will not play against the Wizards on Wednesday night.

Haslem's ankle injury has lingered since late March and the Heat are likely just being cautious with the veteran big man. With Chris Bosh sidelined Wednesday, he could've been a solid spot-start in a lot of formats but center-needy owners will need to look elsewhere now. Rashard Lewis and Joel Anthony will start in the frontcourt for Miami on Wednesday.
Apr 10 - 5:40 PM

Udonis Haslem had 10 points, 15 rebounds and a block in 23 minutes of Tuesday's win over the Bucks.

Haslem started at center and with Chris Bosh iffy to play another game in the regular season, looks like a pretty valid pickup in fantasy right now. If you need a big man, give him a serious look.
Apr 9 - 11:27 PM

Udonis Haslem had eight points and seven rebounds in 21 minutes on Sunday, though he was questionable to play because of a sore foot.

Some rest could be coming soon for Haslem, especially since tonight's win vs. the Spurs gives Miami a nice cushion for the league's best record.

Udonis Haslem didn't seem bothered by an ankle injury on Friday, scoring four points with five boards in 22 minutes during a win against the Hornets.

Haslem sustained an ankle injury on Wednesday and was a game-time decision. The Florida product is shooting the ball well this year, but he doesn't have much value with only 18.6 minutes per game.

Udonis Haslem (ankle) will play Friday night against the Hornets.

Haslem's absence or presence doesn't really affect much fantasy owners other than taking touches away from guys like Ray Allen or Shane Battier. He can be safely ignored in all formats.
Mar 29 - 6:51 PM

Udonis Haslem will be a game-time decision against the Hornets due to an ankle injury.

His absence doesn't have a direct impact on fantasy leagues as he shouldn't be owned in any format, but if Haslem does sit out, it would open up more minutes for guys like Shane Battier, Ray Allen and Chris Andersen to get a little more run.
Mar 29 - 1:15 PM

Udonis Haslem (leg) will start Wednesday night against the Hawks.

Haslem missed one game with a leg bruise last week before the All-Star break but practiced in full Tuesday. Shane Battier will return to the bench, but Haslem hasn't been a fantasy factor all season.
Feb 20 - 7:08 PM

Udonis Haslem (leg) practiced in full Tuesday.

Haslem is ready to return from the bruise on his lower leg, which means Shane Battier heads back to the bench. Haslem has been a non-factor this season, averaging just 3.7 points and 5.4 boards in 19.1 minutes a night.
Feb 19 - 5:53 PM

Udonis Haslem has been ruled out of Thursday's game against the Thunder due to his leg injury and Shane Battier is expected to start in his place.

The fact that Haslem has already been ruled out could be an indication that his leg contusion is more serious than just a contusion, or it could be Erik Spoelstra just wanting to rest him as the team prepares for the All-Star break.
Feb 14 - 8:06 AM

Udonis Haslem suffered a lower-leg contusion in the first half on Tuesday and will not return to the game.

Shane Battier started the second half for the Heat, and it's possible Haslem will miss (at least) Thursday's game and rest over the All-Star break.
