The Miami Heat could have the chance to see their newest addition, Terry Rozier, take to the floor when they face the Memphis Grizzlies on Wednesday night. Miami finally pulled the plug on Kyle Lowry by moving him in the trade along with a future first-round pick to acquire Rozier. The Heat have the scorer they have coveted for long, which will further ease the pressure on their stars Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo.
Meanwhile, the Grizzlies get another shot to see what their young talent pool looks like with four starters and seven rotation players on the sidelines. The forced lineup change for the rest of the season features some blue-chip prospects who have fought well since being included in the rotation. They recorded another impressive win in their last game, registering a 108-100 win against the Toronto Raptors.
