Struggling Heat Looking To Bounce Back Against Bucks
The Miami Heat will host the Milwaukee Bucks at FTX Arena on Wednesday night.

The Heat (14-11) are coming off a 105-90 loss against a red-hot Memphis Grizzlies team, and they have been slumping of late with four losses in their last five contests. In that matchup, Tyler Herro led the Heat with 24 points, three rebounds and four assists, in 29 minutes off the bench. Kyle Lowry followed up with 17 points, four rebounds, eight assists, a steal and a block, while Jimmy Butler and Duncan Robinson chipped in 10 points each. The Heat shot 46 percent from the field, including 6-of-22 from long range.

The Bucks (16-9) have not looked like the dominant team that won the NBA Finals last season, but they’re certainly trending in the right direction and are coming off a 112-104 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday. Giannis Antetokounmpo paced the Bucks with a 27-point, 12-rebound double-double that included two assists and one block. Khris Middleton posted 21 points, eight assists and three rebounds. Jrue Holiday managed 20 points, eight assists, seven rebounds, two steals and one block. Pat Connaughton furnished 12 points and four rebounds, while Bobby Portis generated a 10-point, 16-rebound double-double that included three assists and one block. Milwaukee has won four of its last five contests.
