ESPN Picks Miami Heat To Once Again To Compete In Play-In Tournament

The Miami Heat played in the Play-In Tournament the last two seasons.

Apparently, they are destined for another appearance. ESPN recently released its preseason power rankings. The Heat checked in at No. 7 in the Eastern Conference.

Here’s what ESPN wrote: “This projection comes in right between the 44 and 46 games the Heat have won the past two seasons. Those campaigns were followed by very different playoff runs: a trip to the NBA Finals in 2023 followed by last year’s five-game loss to Boston in the first round. For Miami, getting to the postseason healthy has been more important than accumulating regular-season wins.”

In 2023, the Heat had to fight through the Play-In to become the No. 8 seed in the playoffs. They advanced to the NBA Finals, where they joined the New York Knicks as the lowest-seeded team to make the Finals.

Last year the Heat weren’t as fortunate. They were once again the No. 8 but lost to the eventual champion Boston Celtics. The Heat played without starters Jimmy Butler and Terry Rozier, who were both injured.
