The Miami Heat will face the Phoenix Suns, who have gone a perfect 4-0 in the NBA bubble to gain ground in their race for the play-in tournament, Saturday evening. The Suns are just one-and-a-half games behind the Portland Trail Blazers for the nine seed. If the eighth and ninth seeded teams are separated by four or fewer games, a play-in tournament would start.
And the Heat won’t have two starters, Jimmy Butler and Kendrick Nunn, and may be without sixth man Goran Dragic.
Kendrick Nunn out tomorrow for personal reasons, NBA injury report states.
