Both Caleb Martin and Marcus Garrett are active for the Heat tonight. This will therefore count as one of the 50 games they can be active on their two-way contracts, regardless of if they see action. – 7:49 PM

Very small lineup for Milwaukee tonight
All eyes on Bam Adebayo’s attack mode
And expect many Jimmy Butler free throws when he gets that switch – 7:48 PM

Good for Bob McAdoo on NBA 75th Anniversary team. And deserved after being snubbed on 50th Anniversary team. He currently is working as a Heat scout. – 6:47 PM

It still feels like Giannis has something to prove. Could he do something few players have ever accomplished and win his third MVP in four years? @Kevin O’Connor and @Chris Vernon think it’s possible. pic.twitter.com/ImZTZAFMXj – 5:02 PM

Not going to have high expectations for Bucks tonight in Miami given a) they’ll be without Jrue/Brook/Portis/Semi/Hood and b) Giannis/Khris unlikely to play huge minutes. But interesting opportunity to see how deeper bench guys fare with small lineups and lots of switching. – 3:07 PM

Jamahl Mosley is catching some heat today for only playing Wendell Carter Jr. 19 minutes last night. Yes, that’s too low, but let’s add some context: he didn’t play at all in the fourth quarter (Magic were down 23). So he played 19 of 36 minutes before extreme garbage time – 2:10 PM
