You have to be attentive to these three players, they are important pieces of the team and they must guide their team to victory. First power forward Jimmy Butler (#22), is considered the best player on the team and this season would be his twelfth year in the league. In the 2022-2023 regular season, he is averaging 22.7 points, 6.3 rebounds and 5 assists per game respectively, they will be very important for the offense and he has a lot of weight on the team. Another important player is center Bam Adebayo (#13) who this season has managed to average 16.5 points, 8.3 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game. The team needs him to rebound and control the defense. Finally, point guard Tyler Herro (#14) will be key to assisting, he had an excellent tournament last season and was recognized as the best sixth man and this season he has averaged 17.5 points, 7.2 rebounds and 3.3 assists.
The Miami Heat have played very well this season, this year they are once again a strong team that competes in the Eastern Conference. They had a regular start to the 2022-2023 regular season, with 32 wins and 27 losses, they are in seventh place in the Eastern Conference. Last season they were first place in the Eastern Conference and their goal this year is to return to first place in the conference, to achieve this they must win as many games as possible. Their last game was on February 15 against the Brooklyn Nets, where the Miami Heat lost 116-105 at the Barclays Center and that way they got another loss in the tournament. They arrive as the least favorites to win the game, but they could surprise and win the match because they are a good team from the Eastern Conference and because of the experience their players have.

They had a bad start to the 2022-2023 regular season, with 17 wins and 43 losses, they are in fourteenth place in the Eastern Conference. Last tournament they were left out of the playoffs, they made several changes to the team and they hope that this season they can compete to enter the Play-in tournament or even qualify directly for the playoffs.
