  • Heat's Cody Zeller: Likely to play Sunday

    Zeller (foot) has been upgraded to probable for Sunday's matchup with the Nuggets in Game 2 of the NBA Finals, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Zeller had been listed as questionable on the initial Game 2 injury report the Heat released Saturday, but he's apparently shown some improvement as Sunday's 8 p.m. ET opening tip draws closer. Even if active Sunday, Zeller likely won't play more than a handful of minutes behind starting center Bam Adebayo, who is once again expected to shoulder a heavy workload.

  • Heat's Cody Zeller: Questionable for Game 2

    Zeller is questionable for Game 2 of the NBA Finals on Sunday due to a sprained right foot, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

    Zeller was held scoreless across seven minutes of action in Game 1 and appears to have picked up a foot sprain during the contest. Though he plays an auxiliary role as Miami's backup center, his potential absence could open the door for Kevin Love to rejoin the rotation.

  • Heat's Cody Zeller: Listed as available

    Zeller (illness) is listed as available for Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals in Boston on Wednesday.

    Zeller missed Monday's practice due to an illness and was listed as questionable, but he's had a few days to recover and will ultimately be available for Game 1. The backup big man has had a limited role in the playoffs thus far, averaging 2.6 points and 2.5 rebounds in 8.9 minutes across 10 appearances.

  • Heat's Cody Zeller: Listed as questionable

    Zeller (illness) is questionable for Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals in Boston on Wednesday.

  • Heat's Cody Zeller: Doesn't practice Monday

    Zeller didn't participate in Monday's practice session due to an illness, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

    Zeller has had a limited impact to begin the playoffs, but he was unavailable for Monday's practice due to his illness. It's unclear whether the issue will impact his availability for Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Celtics on Wednesday.

  • Heat's Cody Zeller: Minimal impact in victory

    Zeller closed with one point (1-2 FT), one rebound and one steal across eight minutes during Sunday's 108-101 win over New York in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

    Zeller managed just eight minutes in the win, failing to have a tangible impact once again. While he has had his moments thus far in the playoffs, as long as Bam Adebayo is healthy, Zeller figures to be nothing more than an emergency option on most nights.

  • Heat's Cody Zeller: Falls to second unit Sunday

    Zeller will not start Sunday's regular-season finale versus the Magic, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Zeller will sub back out the starting unit with Bam Adebayo tagging back in for some minutes. Zeller could still see a decent amount of action, as it would be surprising if the starters are deployed for their usual workloads with the Play-In Tournament around the corner Tuesday.

  • Heat's Cody Zeller: Will start Friday

    Zeller will start Friday's contest against the Wizards, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

    With Bam Adebayo (quadriceps) and Kevin Love (ribs) out, Zeller will draw his second start of the season. In his previous start, the veteran center posted 20 points and eight rebounds in 29 minutes.

  • Heat's Cody Zeller: Returns to bench role

    Zeller will play off the bench Tuesday versus the Pistons.

    Zeller made the most of his spot start Saturday versus the Mavericks, compiling 20 points, eight boards and a steal over 29 minutes. His workload will presumably be drastically scaled back again Tuesday with Bam Adebayo back in the fold and starting for Miami.

  • Heat's Cody Zeller: Crushes in spot start

    Zeller provided 20 points (9-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds and one steal across 29 minutes during Saturday's 129-122 win over the Mavericks.

    Zeller slid into the starting lineup Saturday, filling in for Bam Adebayo (hip), who was ruled out shortly before the opening tip. Making his first start of the season, Zeller delivered easily his best performance. If Adebayo misses more time, Zeller could be a sneaky streaming option, although a performance like the one he delivered Saturday likely won't be replicable on a regular basis.

    Zeller is in the starting five for Saturday's game versus the Mavericks, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Zeller will replace Bam Adebayo (hip) in the starting lineup Saturday. Zeller is averaging 4.6 points and 3.9 rebounds in 12.8 minutes across his 12 appearances for Miami this season.

  • Heat's Cody Zeller: Makes return as backup center

    Zeller (nose) posted six points (2-3 FG, 2-2 FT) and seven rebounds over 11 minutes in Tuesday's 106-92 loss to the Raptors.

    Following a six-game absence due to a fractured nose, Zeller returned to action Tuesday and reclaimed his role as the top backup to starting center Bam Adebayo. Though Zeller provided solid numbers in his limited minutes, he's unlikely to scale up his production unless Adebayo is out of the lineup for a given game.

  • Heat's Cody Zeller: Not listed on injury report

    Zeller (nose) isn't listed on the Heat's injury report for Tuesday's game against the Raptors.

    Zeller has missed six straight games since breaking his nose, but it appears the veteran center will return to action Tuesday. Across his first 10 appearances for Miami, Zeller posted 4.7 points and 3.5 rebounds in 13.0 minutes per game.
