*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, Tuesday, February 28th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Wednesday, March 1st.
Philadelphia 76ers
Since returning from the break the Sixers have a single victory (Grizzlies) and two losses that were both heartbreakers. Joel Embiid’s 70′ heave that swished through the net without touching any part of the rim came 0.2 seconds too late.
On Monday, versus the Heat, the Sixers erased an 11-point deficit but in clutch time when they needed a bucket they simply couldn’t buy one.
Joel Embiid captained the comeback but on the final shot, he was doubled teamed and whipped the ball to James Harden who hit back rim on his attempted 3-pointer to win outright — culminating in the loss.
Stats
So far this season, the 76ers score an average of 113.9 points per game ranking 16th. Philly shoots 48.0% from the field and 38.3% from the perimeter, ranking 10th and fourth respectively.
What’s more, defense is where the 76ers make their mark allowing the third-fewest opponent points per game with 110.2 and the fourth-best perimeter defense at 34.5% while ranking 13th for opponent field goal percentage allowing opponents to shoot 47.0%.
Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Dewayne Dedmon, C (OUT indefinitely—hip)
Miami Heat
Similarly to their opponent, the Heat are 1-2 since returning from the break losing to the Bucks and the lowly Hornets with their lone victory being the match versus the 76ers.
Notably, in the three games the Heat have scored an average of 101 points — not exactly feasting offensively. This highlights the issues Miami is dealing with as they try to win games via their gritty defense but struggle to score.
That’s fine in the playoffs when games tend to grind to a slower pace and half court offense but Miami better hope they capture one of the cemented playoff seeds because risking being in the play-in could spell disaster.
Stats
Offensively, the Heat scores 108.0 points per game ranking 30th while shooting 45.0% from the field and 33.3% from the perimeter ranking 29th and 28th respectively.
Defensively, the Heat allow opponents to score 108.5 points per game ranking second overall. Miami opponents shoot 47.6% from the field and 36.7% from the perimeter ranking 18th and 21st respectively.
Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Omer Yurtseven C (OUT indefinitely — ankle)
- Nikola Jovic SF (OUT indefinitely, — back)
- Kyle Lowry G (downgraded to OUT—knee)
- Max Strus SG (questionable — ankle)
- Kevin Love PF (probable — knee)

Free Philadelphia 76ers vs. Miami Heat NBA Prediction:
If Monday offered any hints this match should be another gritty, defensive, old-school-style match.
While the Heat is back home, it’s hard to fathom the Sixers coughing up back-to-back losses when they have more depth, offensive ability, and arguably the better star talent.
