Heat's Luke Babbitt: Questionable for Monday

Babbitt (hip) has been upgraded to questionable for Monday's game against the Wizards, Anthony Chiang of the Palm Beach Post reports.

Analysis:

The Heat have dealt with a slew of injuries of late, with Babbitt, James Johnson (shoulder), Justise Winslow (wrist) and Dion Waiters (groin) all missing the team's recently completed three-game road trip. Only Winslow and Waiters have been ruled out for Monday, so Babbitt and Johnson will have a chance to return to action if both complete the Heat's morning shootaround without incident. Once cleared to play, Babbitt is expected to occupy a limited backup role at either forward spot, so he's not expected to carry much fantasy value.
