The Cavaliers looked every bit the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference in Game 1, sprinting out to a seven-point lead after the first quarter on the back of Donovan Mitchell's eight points and two assists. After two more tightly-contested quarters, the Cavaliers would outscore the Heat 34-21 in the final quarter to secure a 121-100 victory. Cleveland shot 51.1% from the field and made 18 3-pointers, with Darius Garland and Ty Jerome each making five.

While the Heat would settle down, they didn't have enough in the tank to mount a comeback. After a Bam Adebayo 3-pointer cut the lead to seven (95-88) with 8:32 remaining, the Heat were outscored 26-12 the rest of the way, including zero points in the last 2:34 of the game. Adebayo led Heat scorers with 24 points, with Tyler Herro adding 21.

The Heat won one of three matchups with the Cavaliers during the regular season, a 122-113 home win on December 8, 2024.
