LeBron James is back in Miami.
That's the main headline ahead of Sunday night's game in which James' Los Angeles Lakers visit his former franchise, the Miami Heat.
"He's the most unique player in the history of the game," Lakers coach Frank Vogel said. "We won a championship with him playing point guard two years ago. He's been a ball-handling wing throughout his career, and he has been playing center for us . It's remarkable, especially at this stage of his career."
"He's playing at a high level, and it's a testament to the hard work he's put in," teammate Duncan Robinson said of Adebayo. "There are not a lot of players who can do what he does, flying around and making an impact on both ends." Fast forward two-plus months and both teams are still dealing with key absences. For Miami, point guard Kyle Lowry has missed three straight games due to personal reasons, and Tyler Herro has been absent two games since entering COVID-19 protocol. Lowry is fifth in the league in assists , and Herro is second on the Heat in scoring .
Miami has had a much better first half of the season, primarily thanks to a 15-5 home record that is the best in the Eastern Conference. That home dominance has kept the Heat among the top three teams in the East.
