Heat Lose Bam Late, Fall to Bulls

Chicago - It was a high scoring up-and-down affair on Saturday in Chicago that was costly for the Heat in more ways than one. Not only did the Heat lose 136-131, but star center Bam Adebayo took a hard fall late in the game after contesting a shot by Nikola Vucevic, landing on his left hip, and had to leave the game. An MRI will determine the extent of the injury, but expect Bam to miss some time, which is the last thing Miami needs right now as they try to climb back up the Eastern Conference standings. For now they'll at least not have to worry about travel as the Heat will be right back in action Monday here at the United Center vs. the Bulls.

Garland Shines in Mitchell's Absence

Cleveland - It seemed like a blow to Cleveland's hot start when their star Donovan Mitchell broke his hand forcing him to miss extended time. Instead it's lead to the emergence of their other young talent. Darius Garland has stepped up in Mitchell's absence and led the Cavs to a league best 10-2 record to start this season, as Cleveland has not missed a beat. The only real question now is how will Mitchell integrate when he returns to the lineup. If the Cavs can get both of their stars playing at an All-NBA level they may end up being a surprise contender in the East this season.

Game Preview at Chicago Bulls

Chicago - For the second time in three nights the Miami Heat will take on the Chicago Bulls at the United Center. Miami fell 136-131 on Saturday night, but that wasn't the main story, as also in the game Miami lost center Bam Adebayo to a hip injury. Bam was sent home yesterday for treatment, and will miss at least the rest of this road trip, which will make an already difficult stretch even more of an obstacle. Kevin Love will step into the starting role tonight, as the Heat look to split these two games against the Bulls.

Game Preview at Cleveland Cavaliers

Cleveland - The Miami Heat try to snap their three game losing streak, and have the unenviable task of doing it against the current best team in the league as they take on the 12-2 Cavaliers. One thing going for Miami is Cleveland is coming off a back-to-back having played last night in the in-season tournament. Miami will hope to use the fatigue to their advantage as they try to get back in the win column at the Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse.

Heat Fade Away for Fourth Straight Loss

Cleveland - The Miami Heat had a lead going into the fourth quarter on Wednesday night, but the defense fell apart as Darius Garland scored 37, and the Heat were outscored 39-30 in the final period as they dropped their fourth straight contest 117-112 to the now 13-2 Cavaliers. This road trip against some of the East's top teams in record has not been kind to Miami so far as they are now 0-3, with a New York back to back upcoming. The first of those will be on Black Friday, and is a pivotal game for the In-Season tournament.

Heat Snap Skid, Move to 3-0 in Group Play

New York - It's been an up, and down start to the season for the Miami Heat, but they've shown up to play for the In-Season Tournament. Tyler Herro scored 33 points, and the Miami Heat moved to 3-0 in group play, snapping a four game losing streak with a 110-103 win over the New York Knicks. Miami trailed for much of the game, but unlike their losses during this slide, it was the Heat who took control down the stretch, won the fourth quarter, and ultimately the game. Miami will get little time to relish in their victory as they're right back in action tonight against the Brooklyn Nets.
