"The Knicks are 2-0 already on the season, and have done so with key pieces of their roster suffering injuries to begin the year. Star big man Karl-Anthony Towns is on the injury report as questionable. Josh Hart has also been dealing with finger and back injuries, as their 7-footer Mitchell Robinson is listed as out. Even with several Knicks players banged up, they are still wide regarded as one of, if not the the best team in the Eastern Conference this season."
"Miami will look to build on their dominant blowout victory in Memphis on Friday night. The Heat offense was clicking on all cylinders, highlighted by Bam Adebayo's team-high 24 points and eight players scoring in double-digits. Kel'el Ware has also been inserted into the starting lineup, and the talented Heat big impressed in his opportunity- posting 19 points and 9 boards on 8/12 shooting."
Miami opens the home stand hosting the Eastern Conference-contending New York Knicks, a challenging matchup given the Knicks' 2-0 start despite injuries. Karl-Anthony Towns is listed questionable, Josh Hart has finger and back issues, and Mitchell Robinson is out, yet New York remains a top conference team. Jalen Brunson is the offensive focal point, averaging 27 points and 5 assists through two games. Miami's recent blowout win in Memphis featured Bam Adebayo's 24 points and eight double-digit scorers, with Kel'el Ware starting and posting 19 points and nine rebounds. Tip-off is 6:00 PM EST on FanDuel Sports Sun.
