"Andrew Wiggins led the Miami Heat in scoring with 24 points on a very efficient shooting night, but it was not enough to help the Heat overcome the Toronto Raptors, who took the game 121-95."
"Miami will need a lot more performances like the one Wiggins gave them earlier in the week, as Bam Adebayo and Tyler Herro must have better games for the Heat to not only have a chance to win, but also move up in the play-in seeding."
"If the Heat were to move up in the play-in, it would start with a massive bounce-back victory over the Raptors, who they have not beaten in three tries this season."
"The Heat are expected to have their full complement of starters ready for the Raptors, even though both Wiggins and Tyler Herro are dealing with nagging foot and toe injuries."
Andrew Wiggins scored 24 points for the Miami Heat, but they lost to the Toronto Raptors 121-95. This defeat confirmed Miami's fourth consecutive play-in tournament appearance. For the Heat to improve their play-in seeding, players like Bam Adebayo and Tyler Herro must perform better. Miami's chances of competing in a seven-game series seem low. They need to win at least two of their final three games while hoping other teams lose. The Heat will have their starters available, but performance is crucial.
