What you need to know about the Heat

Miami didn't have too much trouble with the Houston Rockets at home on Monday as it won 123-106. Miami's guard Tyler Herro was one of the most active players for the team, shooting 6-for-9 from beyond the arc and finishing with 31 points. Herro was one of six Heat players in double-figures, with P.J. Tucker and Bam Adebayo both recording double-doubles.

Miami leads the NBA in 3P percentage (37.7) with five players shooting at least 38 percent from beyond the arc. The Heat are one of the deepest teams in the league with nine different players averaging at least 8.2 points per game. The team recently welcomed back Victor Oladipo after an 11-month absence and the two-time All-Star had 11 points and four assists in 15 minutes of action on Monday.

What you need to know about the Suns

Meanwhile, the Suns came out on top in a nail-biter against the Orlando Magic on Tuesday, sneaking past 102-99. Phoenix's point guard Cameron Payne looked sharp as he posted a double-double on 18 points and 12 dimes in addition to six rebounds. Deandre Ayton and Landry Shamet both scored 21 points to lead the short-handed Suns.

Phoenix will be without Chris Paul (thumb) on Wednesday while Devin Booker (protocols) is questionable. With both of them sidelined, Ayton was the team's leading scorer in each of the last two games, marking the first time this season he's led Phoenix in points in back-to-back contests. Phoenix has gone 1-3 against the spread with its starting backcourt out and 2-5 ATS with just Paul out.
