Outside of Herro, this is arguably the healthiest Miami roster we’ve seen this season.
Forward Caleb Martin is struggling to score since returning from injury. However, as he adjusts, the Heat gain another offensive weapon that can change the outcome of games.
Caruso is a major loss for Chicago if he is unable to play. He recorded 11 points and three assists on 50 percent shooting from beyond the arc in their first meeting.
The Heat are hoping for redemption against Chicago before playing against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday.
