Miami Heat vs Detroit Pistons: Predicted Lineups
Miami Heat
The Miami Heat are likely to deploy the same starting lineup they did in their last match. Kyle Lowry and Gabe Vincent will likely start as guards, while Duncan Robinson, PJ Tucker and Dewayne Dedmon will complete the rest of the lineup.
Tyler Herro could be in contention to return, but as this is a relatively easy fixture on paper, Miami may opt to rest him. If he does play, he will likely replace Vincent in the starting lineup.
Max Struss, Omer Yurtseven and KZ Okpala will likely play the most minutes among the bench players.
Detroit Pistons
The Detroit Pistons are unlikely to make changes to the starting lineup they have used since Jerami Grant's injury. Cade Cunningham and Killian Hayes could start as guards, with Hamidou Diallo, Sadiq Bey and Isaiah Stewart occupying the three frontcourt positions.
Frank Jackson, Saben Lee and Trey Lyles will likely play the most minutes among the second unit.
