The Golden State Warriors are traveling to South Beach to take on the Miami Heat as two teams with championship aspirations clash.

The Warriors suffered a crucial blow against the Boston Celtics as they lost their superstar Steph Curry to an ankle injury. With a 47-25 record, they have dropped to third in the Western Conference, 11 games behind the Phoenix Suns (58-14), who hold the NBA's best record.

Golden State hold an impressive 29-9 record at home but are only 18-16 on the road and have won only four of their last 10 games in the NBA.

Meanwhile, the hosts have been flying high all season long despite sustaining so many injuries to their star players. They currently sit at the summit of the Eastern Conference with a record that reads 47 wins and 25 losses.

Miami will rely on the likes of Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo, who have been incredible this season, to guide them deep into the postseason.
