After a hard-fought loss to the Toronto Raptors last night, the Miami Heat (38-41) must put that disappointment behind them and face another tough rival on the road when they face the Washington Wizards (48-31) at the Verizon Center.
This will be the final home game for the Wizards, who have already clinched the Southeast Division for their first division title since the 1978-79 season, and they have gone 6-3 in their last nine home games against the Heat.
Miami beat Washington 112-101 in their last matchup on December 12, 2016 at the AmericanAirlines Arena led by Goran Dragic, who scored 13 of his 34 points in the fourth quarter.
