The Miami Heat will be missing key player Terry Rozier due to a neck injury when they face the Philadelphia 76ers in the play-in tournament. Additionally, Josh Richardson will also be absent due to a shoulder injury, leaving the Heat short-handed for the crucial matchup.

Despite these setbacks, the Heat may receive a boost with Duncan Robinson listed as probable, potentially enhancing their offensive capabilities.

On the Philadelphia 76ers’ side, Joel Embiid and KJ Martin are questionable for the game, with Embiid participating fully in practice leading up to the matchup.

Both teams will be eager to secure a win to claim the No. 7 seed and advance to the postseason, with the winner facing the New York Knicks in the first round. The loser will have another chance to qualify for the playoffs by competing against the winner of the Chicago Bulls vs. Atlanta Hawks game.
