The Miami Heat are going to kick off their NBA season by visiting the Orlando Magic. For the Heat, they seem to be all healthy and ready to go to begin their quest at returning to the NBA Finals. Ahead of a Christmas day matchup with the Pelicans, they first face their in-state rival.
Orlando has always given the Heat a battle, especially near the beginning of the season. Big man Nikola Vucevic will be a lot to handle for Bam Adebayo and whoever else ends up on him. But probably the biggest matchup trouble will be with Aaron Gordon who’s athleticism will be tough for the likes of Moe Harkless should he get the assignment.
