Pelle Larsson throws a perfect touchdown pass over Ball, caught by Jaquez for the bucket. #HeatNation

🚨The Bob Costas intros are back🚨 What an amazing time to be an NBA fan. Thank you @NBAonNBC!

Hard to believe how great VJ Edgecombe is already looking for Philly

Trying new things. I love it @NBAonNBC

He always was meant to be part of #HeatCulture

Timberwolves rookie Joan Beringer caught the eye of an NFL scout, @DaneMooreNBA says. But let's see him get some NBA minutes before finding out if he'd make a great target for JJ McCarthy🤣🤣

Dylan Harper is already playing like an 8-year vet

Wolves with Rudy Gobert: 110 DRTG Wolves without Rudy Gobert: 133.7 DRTG "It's a huge issue because when you're playing that bad of defense whenever Rudy is off the floor, it's really hard to say 'defense is our identity.'" -@DaneMooreNBA

Plus -- we react to breaking news of Ant's injury and the league's memo on gambling/injury reports. New ZL Show! -->

Wemby's rise, Leap Guys, ROY race, teams to worry about, are the Bulls good?, rotation holes, gap year sadness (so far) -- much more on the new ZL Show -->

New pod with @DaneMooreNBA is dropping shortly. Recorded before the Anthony Edwards injury was announced, but we spent plenty time discussing how the Timberwolves are running their offense through others.

NBA memo to its teams: "While the unusual betting on Terry Rozier's "unders" in the March 2023 game was detected in real time because the bets were placed legally, we believe there is more that can be done from a legal/regulatory perspective to protect the integrity of the NBA and our affiliated leagues. In particular, proposition bets on individual player performance involve heightened integrity concerns and require additional scrutiny."

Only Heat players who didn’t practice were Tyler Herro and Kasparas Jakucionis. And, obviously, Terry Rozier remains away from the team.

“I think we’re just together. … I think the leadership — especially for Bam — he’s kind of bringing us together. I feel like, when we’re out there, we feel like we’re together.” — Davion Mitchell

“This pace — and even when I was playing against the Heat, when they tried to play fast, especially early on in my career — I always had a great game against them because of my style of play: Getting up and down the floor, attacking the rim, looking for opportunities for catch-and-shoots in transition in the flow of the game. “I read and take what the defense is giving me. I’ve worked really hard on my game to be a three-level scorer, three-level threat, where they have to focus on me when they’re scrambling around on defense. This up-tempo play-style plays directly into my strengths and I was taking what the defense is giving — reading the second-level and third-level of defenders and making the right play.” — Norman Powell (🎥: @MiamiHEAT)

Right place, right time, AND 1 😤

The Knicks want to play fast. The Heat want to play fast. It's 20-20 after 10 minutes. Knicks-Heat will never change.

The Mavericks rank 30th in offensive rating 🤣🤣

13 1Q points for Norman Powell 👀 Miami leads at home on NBA League Pass!

It seems like Fontecchio could be entering for Powell though now Worried about getting enough offense in this next stretch Better run and force turnovers

I love the fact both Ausar and Amen Thompson are awesome

So does Norman Powell count as part of Team International at the All-Star Game as a member of Jamaica's nation team? (And prayers for those in Jamaica.)

Norman Powell finds the loose ball and completes the wild and-1 at the rim Spo finally goes to the second unit I’ve been mentioning: Powell-Jovic-Ware here

Playing Ware and Adebayo together still does not appear to be much of a priority on Spoelstra's card.

Davion Mitchell has two early fouls seven minutes into the game
