The Boston Celtics will try to improve upon their 3-6 road record on Sunday night when they take on the Miami Heat. Last season, the Celtics found a way to win two out of their three games against the Heat.

On Friday, the Celtics won their third game in a row when they blew out the Minnesota Timberwolves 114-98 at home. They shot the ball extremely well in that win, finishing with a 56.5 field goal percentage.

The Celtics are currently near the top of the Eastern Conference in both scoring and assists per game. Small forward Jeff Green is currently the team's leading scorer by averaging 19.5 points per game through 24 games.

The Heat played well early on in their game against the Washington Wizards on Friday, but they couldn't hit their shots late in the game and were edged 105-103 at home. They did make 53.3 percent of their shots, but they also had 15 team turnovers.

The Heat have scored less than 95 points per game this year and they are near the bottom of the league in rebounding. Despite their struggles, veteran guard Dwyane Wade has had a good start to the season by averaging 22.8 points and 5.5 assists per game while making 51.7 percent of his shots. Small forward Luol Deng has scored 14.2 points per game while grabbing 4.9 rebounds per game.
