Among those leading the charge was Jimmy Butler, who scored 36 points along with 5 rebounds and 3 assists. He continues to roll, besting his previous point total in each of the last three games he's played.

Meanwhile, the point spread may have favored the Bulls on Friday, but the final result did not. They took a 103-97 hit to the loss column at the hands of Orlando. The Bulls have struggled against the Magic recently, as their contest on Friday was their third consecutive lost matchup.

The losing side was boosted by Zach LaVine, who scored 34 points along with 6 rebounds.

Miami's win bumped their record up to 8-4. As for Chicago, they have traveled a rocky road recently, as they've lost four of their last five contests, which put a noticeable dent in their 4-9 record this season.

Looking ahead, the Heat are the favorite in this one, as the experts expect to see them win by two points. This contest will be their fourth straight as the favorites (so far over this stretch they are 2-1 against the spread).

This contest is one where the number of possessions is likely to be a big factor: The Heat haven't given up the ball easily this season, having only averaged 12.8 turnovers per game.
