Both teams have already played a game in the preseason, both ending in defeats.

The Heat met the Charlotte Hornets earlier in the week and lost 90-77.

The match was relatively close until the end of the third where the Hornets already built a six point lead.

From there, they would finish the fourth quarter scoring 21 against Miami's 14 to win the game.

In a losing effort, Bosh scored 14 points and brought down seven rebounds while on the floor for 23 minutes.

He also shot the ball better than 50% in a feel good story after he recovered from health issues the year earlier.

Wade added 12 points and five rebounds in the loss, while Justise Winslow began his season with the Heat with nine points but only drained two out of nine attempts from the field.

Amar'e Stoudemire showed that he still has a lot to offer as he had 12 points off the bench as back-up to big men like the absent Hassan Whiteside.

Orlando also lost their first game against the Hornets 100-106, with Oladipo leading the way with 16 points for the starters.

Andrew Nicholson was the star of the game, however, as he had 23 from off the bench and played under 22 minute. He drained nine of his 14 attempts from the field and went 2-of-3 from beyond the arc.

Both teams will entertain fans but will also try to get their first wins of the season in this match.
