NBA's official injury report 

The Hornets have been without Ball for the last 11 games (he has missed every game so far this season), which is a massive loss because he's the team's best player.

The 2022 All-Star is coming off a season where he averaged 20.1 points, 6.7 rebounds and 7.6 assists per contest. 

In addition, Hayward is a solid veteran who has missed the last four games and is averaging 17.4 points per contest.

Right now, the Hornets are in the middle of a six-game losing streak after starting out the season 3-3.

As for the Heat, Herro is one of their best players and has scored a combined 55 points over his last two games (he missed their most recent game). 

The Heat enter the night with a 4-7 record in their first 11 games, and they are in the middle of a two-game losing streak. 

Coming into the season, the Hornets were not expected to be a good team, but the Heat are seen as a potential contender.
