"Following a disappointing blowout loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday night, the Miami Heat will seek another bounce back win against the Chicago Bulls to continue their road trip. The Heat are now at a 20-17 record with the Bulls at 17-20. Miami is a half game out of the sixth seed and one full game back of fifth. They are 1-0 against Chicago so far this season."
"Chicago is in a difficult stretch in which they've gone 3-7 over their last 10 games. They are also without their top player in Josh Giddey, as he has been sidelined with a hamstring injury. This is a perfect matchup for the Heat to work through finding consistent rotations amid Tyler Herro's recent return from injury. Herro dropped 17 points on 7 of 15 shooting in 29 minutes off the bench in his first game back from a 13-game absence in the Wolves loss."
