Heat's Josh Christopher: Misses practice Monday
Christopher missed Monday's practice due to a right big toe contusion, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Christopher's status for Wednesday's game against the Magic has yet to be determined, so fantasy managers should consider him questionable. However, Christopher is on a two-way contract with Miami and isn't guaranteed to crack the rotation on Opening Night, even if he's available.

Heat's Josh Christopher: Leads Miami with 17 points
Christopher supplied 17 points (6-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four assists, three rebounds and four steals over 22 minutes in Friday's 114-109 preseason win over the Grizzlies.
With the Heat resting their starters, Christopher saw extended playing time off the bench Friday. He took advantage of the opportunity by leading the Heat in scoring, and he also contributed on the defensive end of the floor with four steals. Christopher signed a two-way contract with the Heat in July, and he'll likely spend most of the 2024-25 regular season in the G League with the Sioux Falls Skyforce.

The Heat signed Christopher to a two-way contract Thursday.

Heat's Josh Christopher: Catches fire from deep
Christopher tallied 24 points (9-17 FG, 6-10 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist, three steals and two blocks in 31 minutes during Monday's Summer League Championship Game against the Grizzlies.
Christopher was named the 2024 NBA Summer League Finals MVP following his stellar showing from beyond the arc. He led the Heat with 24 points and showed up on the defensive end to help secure a 120-118 overtime victory. The 22-year-old guard was waived by the Jazz in January and will now look to sign an NBA deal following his solid play in Summer League.

Heat's Josh Christopher: Impressing in Summer League
Christopher recorded 23 points (8-11 FG, 6-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal across 21 minutes during Monday's 102-73 Summer League win over the Thunder.
Christopher did the majority of his damage from beyond the arc, drilling six of eight tries to account for 18 of his 23 points. He easily paced the bench in scoring and did so in limited minutes. Christopher should have another opportunity to showcase his scoring ability Wednesday against the Mavs.

Josh Christopher: Gets cut Monday
The Jazz waived Christopher on Monday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.
Utah cut Christopher loose from his two-way deal without the 2021 first-round pick having logged a minute at the NBA level this season. He was moderately efficient but turnover-prone at the G League level this season, though he remains a candidate to re-sign with the Jazz's affiliate -- the Salt Lake City Stars -- once he clears waivers.

Jazz's Josh Christopher: Lands two-way deal with Utah
Christopher agreed to a two-way deal with the Jazz on Thursday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
A 2021 first-round pick, Christopher played 138 games for the Rockets in the previous two seasons with averages of 6.9 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.6 assists. He was dealt to Memphis in the offseason as part of the deal that sent Dillon Brooks to Houston, but the Grizzlies didn't have a roster spot available for the 21-year-old guard and cut him in advance of training camp. Though he won't have much of an opportunity to contribute at the NBA level in Utah, Christopher at least provides the Jazz with an intriguing developmental prospect to fill out its third and final two-way spot.

Rockets' Josh Christopher: Sticks in rotation Sunday
Christopher registered two points (1-2 FG) across six minutes during Sunday's 108-91 loss to Cleveland.
Christopher played just six minutes in the loss, the fewest he has played in almost two weeks. Despite playing somewhat consistent minutes, Christopher is outside the top 300 over the past two weeks, begging the question of why head coach Stephen Silas refuses to play TyTy Washington. Questionable coaching decisions aside, Christopher remains well off the radar, outside of the deepest of leagues.

Christopher totaled 10 points (3-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, three steals and one assist across 22 minutes during Monday's 121-108 loss to the Warriors.
Christopher struggled from the field but scored in double figures thanks to a perfect night at the charity stripe. The second-year wing has scored in double figures just four times over 11 March appearances and is averaging 7.3 points, 1.2 assists and 1.0 rebounds in 14.5 minutes during that stretch.
