Miami won the only meeting this season 115-106 on Dec. 20 when it made 15 of 29 3-pointers and Tyler Herro scored 28 points. Orlando has lost four of six and it comes off a 113-92 defeat against Minnesota on Tuesday as the Timberwolves shot 54 percent and the Magic missed 29 of 42 3-point tries. Miami looks to bounce back from a 128-120 loss to Oklahoma City on Wednesday when the Thunder shot a blistering 59 percent. The Heat are counting on younger players to pick up the slack due to some injured starters and rookie Jaime Jaquez Jr. is one of them and he was named the Eastern Conference Rookie of the Month for November and December. Miami is No. 3 in the NBA with a .386 3-point shooting percentage. The Magic also are dealing with several key injuries, including Franz Wagner, who is not expected to play tonight. Take the Heat.
