With records of 39-32 this season, the Miami crew is listed seventh in the East, a potential rival to the Warriors in the play-in race. While Trayce Jackson-Davis recovers from his injury, the Golden State team needs to step up from their disappointing performances in the past few games.

In January, when Looney got bumped from the starting line-up, Jackson-Davis was spotted at center. On the other hand, Šarić has not played for much time since January-end.
Despite Dario’s long-term partner Chris Paul returning in February, Šarić has majorly remained absent. However, with Trayce Jackson-Davis away, the Warriors are looking up to him for the highlights. As a seasoned shooter, all eyes will be on Šarić if his rookie teammate ends up unavailable for the game tonight.
