What to know about the Heat
The Heat are fighting to climb out of the No. 7 seed and avoid the NBA Play-In Tournament as they are one game behind the Pacers at the No. 6 spot. Miami enters on a two-game winning streak, most recently defeating the Wizards, 119-107, on Tuesday. Terry Rozier, who is averaging 16.1 points over 27 games with the Heat compared to 23.2 points over 30 games with the Hornets this season before being traded to Miami, had a breakout performance with 27 points, including making five 3-pointers against Washington. Rozier has made at least five triples in back-to-back games.
The Heat are holding opponents to the fourth-fewest ppg (108.5) in the league, including keeping their opponents below 85 points in two of their last four contests. Miami has allowed the third-fewest offensive rebounds in the league, which has helped them to allow the fourth-fewest field goal attempts per game to keep the opposing scoring totals down. Rozier (knee), Duncan Robinson (back), Caleb Martin (ankle) and Nikola Jovic (knee) are all probable for Tuesday. See which team to pick here.
