|
| |  | UTAH: GUARDS: TREY BURKE is likely the lead guard here, though it's really by default. He doesn't have the athleticism to make a lot of plays in the lane, and will have to rely on difficult shot-making . . . He continues to steadily improve, and there could be a bigger role available for ALEC BURKS. He'll have to develop a more consistent three-point shot before he really breaks out though . . . DANTE EXUM is an electrifying athlete, but he's making an enormous jump from essentially high school ball in Australia. He could be a gem in the long run, but don't expect him to do much as a rookie . . . TOURE' MURRY will likely play some garbage minutes. FORWARDS: He ascended to the alpha role in Utah, but GORDON HAYWARD had some struggles with the extra defensive attention. He should improve somewhat, as he knows what's coming, and has added a runner to his repertoire . . . DERRICK FAVORS will play more at the 4-spot this season, and he has the strength to power his way to easy baskets. He's a potential double-double guy . . . RODNEY HOOD had an up-and-down year at Duke despite his physical gifts. He has an NBA-caliber combination of size and athleticism, but right now he's a streaky shooter with a lot of rough edges on his game . . . TREVOR BOOKER is a solid second-unit big man, a defensive bruiser and good screener on offense . . . JEREMY EVANS can dunk, but provides little else . . . STEVE NOVAK will never be a full-time player, but he's still one of the league's elite shooters. CENTERS: He was disappointing last season, but ENES KANTER still has some upside on the offensive end of the floor. How he and Favors will mesh is yet to be seen . . . RUDY GOBERT is a shot-blocking fool, but still ultra-raw |  | MIAMI: GUARDS: He's a shell of his former self, but the Heat will have to squeeze more regular-season minutes out of DWYANE WADE. His effectiveness could depend on whether or not he finally develops a three-point shot . . . The point guard situation is getting muddied, but the Heat dug deep to re-sign MARIO CHALMERS. He'll top the PG depth chart again . . . NORRIS COLE is likely too small and too erratic to ever be a starter, but he'll continue to play solid minutes with the second unit . . . The Heat seemed to grab SHABAZZ NAPIER on draft night because he's a LeBron James favorite. Now that James is gone, the rookie could be the odd man out in the point guard rotation. He'll have to overcome subpar measurables. FORWARDS: LUOL DENG is most certainly not LeBron James, and he won't fill anything resembling James' new role. He does give them a strong role player, a defensive stopper and secondary scorer . . . JOSH McROBERTS will facilitate the offense at times and generally serve as a floor-spacing, stretch-4. Miami is built to go small with him and Chris Bosh up front . . . DANNY GRANGER is trying to reinvent himself after an injury-filled couple of seasons. He can play both forward spots and might fit best as a stretch-4 in head coach Erik Spoelstra's system . . . UDONIS HASLEM is essentially a mascot during the regular season . . . JAMES ENNIS could break into the rotation later this season. He was tremendous in Summer League play. CENTERS: CHRIS BOSH is the best player on this team by a significant margin. He'll be the focal point of the offense most nights and should flirt with the 20-10 numbers he used to put up in Toronto . . . CHRIS ANDERSEN will often pair with Bosh in the frontcourt, taking some of the defensive heat off Bosh against bigger lineups. Because of this information, no power rating or computer score edges are posted for this game. |

*Jazz-Heat Preview* ===================
By JACK CASSIDY STATS Writer
Utah (6-19) at Miami (12-13), 7:30 p.m. EDT
After winning 69 of their 82 games at American Airlines Arena over the previous two seasons, home has not been kind to the Miami Heat so far in 2014-15.
The Heat will try to reverse that trend and gain some semblance of a home court advantage during a season-high seven-game stay in Miami beginning Wednesday night against the slumping Utah Jazz.
Miami (12-13) has lost three in a row and six of its last seven home games to fall to 4-7 in South Beach. The Heat, who beat lowly Charlotte by one point at home Nov. 23, shot a season-worst 35.0 percent in a 93-75 home loss to Chicago on Sunday.
They rebounded with a 95-91 win at Brooklyn on Tuesday and did so without Chris Bosh, who is out indefinitely with a strained calf. Bosh leads the team with 21.6 points and 8.2 rebounds per game this season.
"To me this is one of the most gratifying wins of the season," Dwyane Wade said. "To be able to pull it out shows a lot of character and toughness."
The Heat will also be without Josh McRoberts, who may miss the remainder of the season after tearing his right meniscus Dec. 9 at Phoenix. McRoberts had averaged 4.2 points and 2.6 rebounds in more than 17 minutes per game.
Utah (6-19) has lost 12 of 13 and provides a good starting point for Miami on a homestand that features a Christmas Day matchup with LeBron James and Cleveland. The Jazz have also dropped six straight on the road after Tuesday's 119-111 loss at New Orleans.
Enes Kanter had one of his best games of the season with 29 points on 12-of-22 shooting. Gordon Hayward added 17 points, while Alec Burks and Trey Burke had 16 apiece for the Jazz, who shot 50 percent from the field for the second time in four games, but allowed the Pelicans to post a 59.5 mark, including 8 for 16 from behind the arc.
"I think there were so many good things about the way we played tonight," coach Quin Snyder told Utah's official site. "We really connected and had exchanges and possessions where we were able to execute a lot of the things we've been working on."
With Miami's inside presence thinned by injuries, the Heat - specifically Wade - could exploit Utah's lackluster shooting defense. Wade has scored at least 25 points in six of his last 10 games, shooting 52 percent in that span. Tuesday's loss was the tenth time this season the Jazz allowed a team to shoot better than 40 percent from 3-point range.
"I wanted to take it on my shoulders to be aggressive," Wade said after scoring 28 points against the Nets. "We're missing a big part of our team (Bosh) right now."
While Wade had 29 points and seven assists in a 100-95 win Dec. 15 at Utah, the Heat relied heavily on Bosh, who had 22 points and nine rebounds while logging over 36 minutes.
The Jazz have found little success in Miami in recent years. Since 2004, Utah has lost nine of ten matchups, and it hasn't shot better than 49 percent overall there since 1997.
