Jamal Cain (G League) returning to Heat Wednesday
Miami Heat small forward Jamal Cain (G League two-way) is questionable for Wednesday against the Indiana Pacers.
What It Means:
Cain and Jamaree Bouyea are being added to the Heat roster after spending time in the G League for Sioux Falls Skyforce. Kyle Lowry (knee), Victor Oladipo (ankle), and Duncan Robinson (finger) are all out Wednesday, so Cain could potentially crack the rotation. His last game for the Heat was on January 14.
Cain is averaging 11.3 FanDuel points in 13.9 minutes over 13 games for the Heat this season. Per numberFire's NBA Heat Map, the Heat’s implied total (114.75) is tied for No. 11 out of 18 active teams Wednesday and the game total (223.0) is second-lowest on the board.
