What you need to know about the Heat
The Heat entered their tilt with the Pelicans with two consecutive wins but they'll enter their next game with three. Miami walked away with a 106-95 victory over New Orleans on Friday. The score was all tied up 58-58 at the break, but the Heat were the better team in the second half.
The Heat relied on the efforts of Bam Adebayo, who scored 24 points to go along with seven rebounds and three blocks, and Jimmy Butler, who almost dropped a double-double on 23 points and nine rebounds. However, Miami will take the court tonight without Butler, who is serving a league suspension, while both Tyler Herro (knee) and Terry Rozier (knee) are listed as questionable.
