Miami Heat News

Smith hits the Heat’s first three of the game. #HeatNation

Jaquez leading with six points as Raptors call timeout as Miami still trails 18-13 with 2:45 left in the first quarter. #HeatNation

Jakucionis second off bench for Heat, coming in with Fontecchio and Bam. #HeatNation

I watched the game! He made huge shots. All I said on the pod was I'm waiting to feel something good or bad about him. Well, I'm starting to feel!

🏀 TUESDAY'S FINAL SCORES 🏀 Scottie Barnes scores 27 as the @Raptors move to 18-13 on the season! Immanuel Quickley: 18 PTS, 5 REB, 7 AST Jaime Jaquez Jr.: 21 PTS, 2 REB, 2 AST Norman Powell: 17 PTS, 6 REB, 6 AST

Cooper Flagg with 33/9/9 and a season-high 4 made 3s. Now 5/7 from 3 since turning 19. He was 23.4% prior despite an amazing start. At Duke he made only 24.4% before he turned 18 on Dec 21. Then 44.7% after that. If his rookie year follows that trend he’s about to be a monster.

Right down the Jaime Highway 💥

Ware missed his first three, was contested. Spo said not to hunt that shot, though he’s been hitting a lot recently. #HeatNation

Jaime on the board, Miami needed it desperately. #HeatNation

Spo calls timeout as Heat trail 16-3 to Raptors with 7:18 left in the first quarter. Miami shooting 1-12 from the field. Missed some easy ones mixed with a bad shot selection to start. #HeatNation

Heat trailing 14-3. Miami’s shot selection has been horrid to start, more of a credit to Toronto’s defense. #HeatNation

Heat starting 1-11 from the field, trail 11-3 with Bam going to the line. #HeatNation

HEAT hoops starts now. Tune in at @FanDuelSN_Heat 🔥

This is fun! Great job @jga41agher

Ben Simmons casts right and retrieves left, a technique that allows right-handed anglers to keep their dominant hand on the rod for maximum control. The evidence is overwhelming that he shot the basketball with the wrong hand.

Numbers never lie. Award this man for his defensive dominance! @Bam1of1 The Case // @Kia

Back on home court tonight

Hopefully the audio issues we had yesterday (apologies) have been fixed, but we discussed a bunch of the ideas being reported today -->

Thank you, and I wondered if anyone would remember said player

What should the Clippers do? Are there any realistic Harden trades. Surging Pelicans, Sixers finding a new identity, the inevitable Wolves, anti-tank measures -- so much more on a loaded ZL Show -->

Plus -- 30-games-in first- and second-team All-Rookie picks, honorable mentions, more rookie deep dives w/ @jkylemann -- new ZL Show! -->

Injury implications, what should the Clippers do?, Sixers/Wolves surging, Embiid's fit -- around the NBA w/ @Tjonesonthenba and @JonKrawczynski. New ZL Show -->

#TORvsMIA INJURY UPDATE: Tyler Herro (toe), Pelle Larsson (ankle) and Nikola Jovic (elbow) have all been ruled out of tomorrow night's game vs the Raptors.

Drake Maye deep ball is a thing of beauty
