Market Intelligence
Market Signal
The Miami Heat enter this matchup with unexpected rest after a game against the Chicago Bulls was postponed due to court condensation. Meanwhile, the Indiana Pacers adjusted their roster depth by signing center Tony Bradley to a 10-day contract to bolster a frontcourt rotation needing stability.
Tactical Edge
Rick Carlisle successfully halted a franchise-record 13-game losing streak with a 114-112 victory over the Charlotte Hornets, marking his 1,000th career win. Indiana showed poise in the narrow win, while Miami faces a potential rhythm challenge after being sidelined by unplayable conditions in Chicago.
The Bottom Line
Indiana carries significant emotional momentum from Rick Carlisle’s milestone victory into a battle against a fresh, well-rested Miami squad.
