Bulls Hope To End Recent Slide Against Nets

The Nets win their second straight for the first time this season.
Warriors Bring Losing Streak To Miami
The Golden State Warriors and Miami Heat clash tonight at FTX Arena. The teams will wrap up their regular season series early this year, as the Warriors defeated the Heat 123-110 five days ago at home. However, the defending champions have gotten off to a slow start and come into tonight’s game with a 3-4 record.
The Warriors are now 2.5 games behind the Phoenix Suns in second place in the Pacific Division. Golden State has lost two straight on the current road trip, with the last defeat coming to the Detroit Pistons 128-114.

The Heat are 2-5 on the season and have also lost their last two contests. They’re two games behind the Atlanta Hawks in the Southeast Division and return home after losing two of three on the last road trip. After going to Portland and handing the Trailblazers their first season defeat, they lost the final two games of the west coast swing at Golden State and Sacramento.
The Heat defend their home floor and get a close victory.
Wolves Continue Road Trip In Phoenix
The Minnesota Timberwolves travel to face the Phoenix Suns in a Western Conference matchup on Tuesday night. The Wolves had their two-game winning streak broken by the San Antonio Spurs, who they played for the third time in the last four games on Sunday, and are 1-2 against them already this season.
They’re 4-3 and are third in the Northwest Division behind the Portland Trailblazers and Utah Jazz. The team has high expectations as their big three of Rudy Gobert, Anthony Edwards, and Karl-Anthony Towns become more familiar.
