Here’s how the Heat fared in its preseason opener against the Spurs

It’s been a busy week for the Miami Heat.

It began Monday in Miami at the team’s annual media day and it continued with five days in Boca Raton for training camp. The seventh day included the Heat’s preseason opener, which ended up as a 104-100 loss to the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday at AT&T Center.

But wins and losses don’t matter much in the preseason. In fact, it was a positive night for the Heat because starting center Hassan Whiteside, who is entering the third season of his four-year, $98 million contract, was the Heat’s best player with 20 points, 13 rebounds and one block in 23 minutes.
