Philadelphia @ Miami
Current Records: Philadelphia 0-1; Miami 1-0
What to Know
The Miami Heat have the luxury of staying home another game and will welcome the Philadelphia 76ers at 7:30 p.m. ET May 4 at FTX Arena. The Heat will be strutting in after a victory while Philadelphia will be stumbling in from a defeat.
Miami is hoping for another win. They captured a comfortable 106-92 win over the Sixers on Monday. Miami’s center Bam Adebayo was one of the most active players for the squad, dropping a double-double on 24 points and 12 rebounds.
Miami is expected to win this handily, but they should have beaten the Golden State Warriors March 23 easily too and instead slipped up with a 118-104. In other words, don’t count Philadelphia out just yet.
