The Cavaliers (42-26) are looking for a two-game sweep of the Heat (35-32) when the teams meet on Friday night for the second time in three days.

The Heat were careless in their most recent encounter with the Cavaliers, committing a season-high 24 turnovers in a 104-100 loss. Darius Garland scored 25 points and Donovan Mitchell added 18, while Jarrett Allen posted a double-double with 15 points and 12 rebounds.

Heat big man Bam Adebayo scored well with 17 points, but he only had one rebound. If Miami has any hope of holding off Cleveland this time around, Adebayo will need to cement his presence on the boards.

The Cavaliers have won three straight games to remain within striking distance of the third-place Philadelphia 76ers. The Heat are looking to avoid the Play-In Tournament by catching the Brooklyn Nets for the sixth seed in the Eastern Conference.
