The Pelicans' loss to the Bucks at Fiserv Forum leaves them one defeat shy of their 60th this season, and they travel back to New Orleans to play the Heat, who beat them 119-108 in Miami on January 1st.
The Heat hold the tenth seed in the Eastern Conference and the last seed to qualify for the next play-in. The Heat are coming off a loss just one day before the Pelicans did. In Chicago, the Bulls beat the Heat 111-119 in a game where Herro scored 30 points, Mitchell 17, and Adebayo 18. A 14-point halftime lead turned into just a 5-point Bulls lead over the Heat, but at that point, the Bulls went on a 10-2 run to seal the game.
Wiggins finished with 14 points against the Bulls. He was the one they acquired for Butler but only played 16 of 31 possible games with the Heat due to a wrist injury.
The Heat still had Butler on their roster the last time they played against the Pelicans. That win over New Orleans saw Herro score 32 points and Adebayo 23.
