The Miami Heat faced the Boston Celtics in a challenging matchup, ultimately losing 103-91. Coach Erik Spoelstra emphasized the need for the team to simplify and focus on their identity as they navigate the play-in tournament. The Heat reverted to a familiar starting lineup with Duncan Robinson, Jaime Jaquez Jr., Bam Adebayo, Andrew Wiggins, and Tyler Herro, marking the 20th different lineup this season. With play-in desperation looming, experimentation is set aside, and roles are solidified. Tyler Herro extended his streak of double-digit scoring to 88 games, while Duncan Robinson broke a personal 3-point streak record. The Heat's focus now shifts to solidifying their performance as they face Memphis next.
