The Heat and Bulls meet for the third of four regular season matchups and the first of a back-to-back with another game against Chicago again tomorrow. With their game originally scheduled for January 8 being postponed, the Heat and Bulls will now play each other three consecutive times with a game this past Thursday, tonight and tomorrow. So far this season, Miami has won both previous matchups. Ayo Dosunmu has had at least 20 points in four of his last five games versus Miami, averaging 19.8 ppg and 5.2 apg during that stretch. Nikola Vučević has logged a double-double in five of his last six games against the Heat, which is a part of 29 career double-doubles versus Miami. The Bulls are 6-4 in their last 10 games versus the Heat. Bulls are looking to avoid losing their first season series against Miami for the first time since the 2021-22 season. The Bulls recently retired the jersey of legend Derrick Rose.
