The Miami Heat (2-2) head to Capital One Arena on Saturday night to face the Washington Wizards (2-2).
The visitors have started the season at 2-2, with both victories coming against winless teams—Detroit (106-98) and Charlotte (114-106). Their losses include an opening defeat to Orlando (116-97) and a home loss to the New York Knicks (116-108) on October 30. The Heat led by 13 points in the third quarter against the Knicks, only to be overtaken by a 30-10 Knicks run.

The hosts are also 2-2, with both wins against Atlanta. Though the Hawks have struggled with a 2-4 record, the Wizards are building momentum. Last season’s struggles earned Washington the second pick in the draft. They traded Deni Avdija to Portland in exchange for a future first-round pick and a mid-first-round selection, positioning themselves for future talent.
