What to watch for:
- Tonight will mark as the quickest Miami and Sacramento will complete their season series in the team’s histories with the previous earliest date of December 9 in 2001.

- Tonight marks the second of back-to-back home games after playing Golden State in a, 116-109, win last night. It is the second of three such occurrences this season having already completed one on 10/21 vs. BOS and on 10/22 vs. TOR and with another one on 3/3 vs. NY and 3/4 vs. ATL. Last season, Miami played back-to-back home games five times, the second-most during a single season in team history. Additionally, the HEAT have played home games on consecutive nights 33 total times in franchise history, winning both games 10 times, splitting the pair 15 times and dropping both on eight occasions.
- Wednesday marks as the busiest day of the week for the HEAT, playing 17 times on the day this season, including in six of the first seven to start the season and will also play in every Wednesday in March. Additionally, there are only eight Wednesday’s this season that Miami will not play on (even when including the February 22 All-Star break).
