The Heat finished this past year as the eighth seed in the Eastern Conference with a 46-36 record.

They beat the Chicago Bulls in the play-in tournament but lost to Jayson Tatum and the Boston Celtics in the first round of the NBA playoffs (in five games).

That said, the franchise has been to the Eastern conference finals three times in the previous five seasons.
