Washington found a way to pull off a victory against the Charlotte Hornets in their last outing and snapped a 16-game losing streak.
The Wizards will be without center Marvin Bagley III again tonight but backup center Richaun Holmes has also been listed as a game time decision which could cause major depth issues in the Washington front-court.
On the other side the Heat will be without a big piece in guard Tyler Herro tonight and forward Kevin Love was also ruled out.
Will the Wizards be able to shock the NBA world tonight and win back-to-back games?

Gage Sheets: Heat 117 Wizards 105
The spread for tonight's game is -11.5 in favor of Miami and it's going to be extremely close to that number.
If Holmes misses the game for Washington it will be near impossible for the Wizards to stop Heat center Bam Adebayo.
Adebayo has already shown his muscle against the Wizards this year including a 14 rebound performance the last time these two matched up.
It was refreshing to see this Washington team battle and get a victory but it's going to be a little to tough tonight, as Miami will win and cover tonight.
