Miami had to overcome a 21-point third-quarter deficit to finally defeat the Bucks, 131-126, in overtime on Saturday night, and now the Heat has to play a back-to-back at Minnesota. Seven players scored in double figures for the Heat, led by Goran Dragic with 25 points, and Milwaukee went only 17-for-54 from 3-point range. The Timberwolves are 2-0 with wins at Brooklyn and Charlotte while averaging 124 points. Minnesota held the Hornets to 44 percent shooting as Karl-Anthony Towns exploded for 37 points and grabbed 15 rebounds. Udonis Haslem (wrist) is questionable for the Heat, and Jimmy Butler (paternity leave) is doubtful for Miami. Minnesota enjoys a much better scheduling situation in this matchup. Play the Timberwolves.
