"In that loss, Anthony Edwards torched the Heat defense with a game-high 33 points on 10 of 19 shooting on route to Minnesota securing the 125-115 victory. The only Miami scorer to put up 20+ points in that game was Norman Powell, who is coming off a career-game of 34 points and nine 3-pointers himself. Coach Erik Spoelstra will need a more balanced offensive production from the rotation to help supplement Powell if they want to take down the Wolves this time around."
"Something to monitor ahead of tip-off is the status of Tyler Herro, who is listed as questionable. A return to the court for the former All-Star would be his first outing after a 13-game absence. Injury Report (at the time of this publishing): Minnesota Timberwolves: Terrence Shannon Jr. (foot) - OUT Enrique Freeman (g-league) - OUT Rocco Zikarsky (g-league) - OUT"
