This is a win-or-go-home game for both teams, with the reward being a seven-game playoff series. The only problem is that the series will come against the top-seeded Cleveland Cavaliers.

Miami won its nine-versus-ten Play-In game over Chicago to get here, building some momentum. They beat the Bulls by 19 points in a game that was never really close, as Tyler Herro exploded for 38 points. Four Miami players scored at least 15 points in the win.

On the other hand, Atlanta was blown out by Orlando in their Play-In Tournament opener, setting up a must-win game for the 40-43 Hawks. They must erase the 25-point loss from their memory quickly, and fortunately, the game will be in Atlanta, so they will have their fans by their side. Trae Young scored 28 points in defeat, but was ejected after receiving two technical fouls towards the end of the game.

This is a great NBA matchup that will not disappoint; make sure to tune in and catch all the action.
