The Miami Heat will face off against the Chicago Bulls in a rematch of the November 18th game tonight. Their last matchup was one of the most surprising games so far. The Heat, who were riding high on their seven-game winning streak, started hot with a 19-point lead halfway through the first quarter. However, going back and forth in the second and third quarters to get the upper hand, the tides turned in the final quarter. As a result, the Bulls, who were on a three-game losing streak, broke the record by securing a 102-97 win.

The Heat will be looking forward to avenging the last game’s humiliation when they meet again at the United Center. Let’s take a closer look at Miami’s injury report to see which stars will be suiting up tonight to help them steer past the Bulls. Will Jimmy Butler suit up to help Miami stage a comeback win against the Bulls?

Is Jimmy Butler playing tonight?

Jimmy Butler put up a game-high 25 points to go with 3 rebounds and 2 assists. However, his efforts failed to yield the expected results. The Bulls clinched an impressive win after losing to Miami in the play-ins last season. The Bulls entered as underdogs, considering their three-game losing streak and that they are currently embroiled in trade rumours.

However, DeMar DeRozan and Co. had a great outing last game. In the wake of the recent loss, Miami will need Jimmy Butler to repeat his impressive feat once again.

Good news for the Heat faithful: Butler’s name is not mentioned in tonight’s injury report. Therefore, we can be certain that he will be lacing up for tonight’s revenge game. The last game Butler missed was during the Heat’s 117-109 win against the Atlanta Hawks due to a personal issue. However, ever since he has been back on the floor, he has poured in monster numbers.

Miami Heat predicted starting lineup

Although Jimmy will take the court today, the Heat will still be shorthanded without their shooting guard Tyler Herro, who suffered a Grade 2 ankle sprain and is expected to miss a few weeks. The 2021-22 Sixth Man of the Year rolled his right ankle during a drive in the first quarter of Wednesday’s win over the Memphis Grizzlies. Moreover, the Heat will also be without point guard R.J. Hampton, who is nursing a knee injury.

In Herro’s absence, the starting five would look like this: Kyle Lowry, Duncan Robinson, Jimmy Butler, Caleb Martin, and Bam Adebayo.
