Fantasy Analysis
Miller has been dealing with a minor ankle issue so Miami wanted to be cautious with the 32-year-old entering the NBA playoffs. He has drained at least one trey in each of his last three games played but is averaging just 5.4 points per game. Leave him on waivers in all Fantasy formats. (Updated 04/15/2012).

Mike Miller is coming off a very disappointing 2010-11 season. After being brought in to be the team's sixth man off the bench, Miller's year was derailed by a series of injuries. He broke his thumb during the preseason, which forced him out of action until late December and also dealt with shoulder, back and head injuries throughout the season. When he did finally get on the court, Miller seemed unsure of his role at times and struggled as a spot up shooter playing alongside the Big Three. He posted career lows across the board in almost every major offensive category, including points (5.6), minutes (20.4), games (41) and field-goal percentage (40.1). However, Miller should be fully healthy coming into next season and could be in line for a nice bounce-back season in Miami. Still, he will once again defer most of the scoring to Dwyane Wade, LeBron James and Chris Bosh, so Fantasy owners should expect something along the lines of 10 points per game. His biggest asset may be his ability to shoot three-pointers, but not well enough to warrant starting him in the majority of formats. Expect him to go in the late rounds of Fantasy drafts as a reserve. (Updated 8/23/11)
