The Miami Heat (28-28) host the Brooklyn Nets (38-18) today at the AmericanAirlines Arena.
Jimmy Butler (ankle) will not start today, though his injury is believed to be more of a load management type and not one that will hold him out for any extended amount of time, and is being replaced in the lineup by Andre Iguodala.
