Combined, the Magic's last five opponents are giving up 109.0 points per contest.

<h2>Individual Player Analysis</h2>
<p>As Miami travels to take on the Orlando Magic, the Heat will rely more on Tyler Herro and his 21 points per game. As he gets set to take on the Magic, he could be in line for a big game as Orlando is allowing their opponent's top scorer to surpass their season average in 63.64% of their games. This figure places them 29th among NBA defenses. On the other side, Chuma Okeke will look to build on his team-leading 20 points against Charlotte. However, if he hopes to add to this total, Okeke will need to do so against a Heat defense that has been tough on their opponent's top scorers. So far, leading scores have surpassed their season average at a rate of just 40.3%. This figure is good for a rank of 4th in the league.</p>
<h2>Matchup Analysis</h2>
<p>Heading into this matchup, the Miami Heat are the more efficient team on both ends of the court. This scenario has taken place in 26 of Miami's 40 games, leading to a winning percentage of 65%.
