The Miami Heat play again tonight on night two of a back-to-back. After taking down the Houston Rockets last night, they travel even deeper into Texas to face off against the San Antonio Spurs.
Miami got it done behind great performances from Tyler Herro and Duncan Robinson last night. Herro continued his impressive preseason, while Robinson got the ball rolling a bit.
They improved to 2-0 with the 113-106 win and are looking for more tonight. Can they begin the year with a 3-0 start in the preseason?
