Since 2016 when he came to the Canadian outfit, this is the best season in terms of numbers by Pascal Siakam, who averages 37-7 minutes played per game and 22.5 points per game, the second best in his career.

After missing some games due to injury, Miami needs Jimmy Butler to get into rhythm in the final stretch of the season to be one of the players that will lead them to victories that will assure them the conference lead.

3 OG Anunoby, small forward; 4 Scottie Barnes, small forward; 43 Pascal Siakam, center; 23 Fred VanVleet, point guard; 33 Gary Trent Jr, point guard.

22 Jimmy Butler, forward; 17 P.J. Tucjer, forward; 13 Bam Adebayo, center; 7 Kyle Lowry, point guard; 31 Max Strus, point guard.

The Toronto Raptors will return home and begin a streak of four straight home games that they must take advantage of if they want to qualify directly to the postseason and thus avoid the Play-in in the face of the chasing Cleveland Cavaliers.

The fourth last game of the season will be clear for Miami Heat if they want to keep the lead of the NBA Eastern Conference, remembering that the competition is very close and both Bucks and Celtics can snatch the number one spot.

The Miami Heat vs Toronto Raptors match will be played at the Scotiabank Arena, in Toronto, Canada. The kick-off is scheduled at 19:05 pm ET.
