The 2020 NBA playoffs continue on Tuesday with another quadruple Game 1 header, including an interesting Eastern Conference match between number 4 Indiana Pacers and the fifth-seeded Miami Heat. After a competitive and hard-fought first half, the Heat maintain a tight advantage over the Pacers.
Victor Oladipo originally wouldn’t play in the bubble, but he changed his mind and decided to dress up. He looked solid in planting matches but sadly left Race 1 due to an eye injury. His return is questionable. The Pacers are also without Domantas Sabonis for this game, but famous TJ Warren is playing after missing the last few games of seeding.
Miami has returned to the playoffs after losing last season, and is led by star Jimmy Butler. Goran Dragic joined the starting lineup for Game 1 after being off the bench for much of the season. Swingman Derrick Jones Jr., who left a sowing match on a stretcher last week, is healthy and licensed for this game. Follow below for all real-time updates in-game.
