Haywood Highsmith has made a mere 40.6% of his shots from the field this season, quite a bit lower than his 46.1 mark last season.This year when they are at home, the opposition's starting PFs have totaled 0.9 three-pointers per game (15th-lowest in the NBA) against the Phoenix Suns, identifying this as a tough matchup.The Miami Heat have played at the least up-tempo pace in the NBA over the last 25 games.The Miami Heat check in as the 6th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore reduce additional opportunities for scoring and assists).Over the last 5 games, opposing squads have brought down 14.0 offensive boards per game (2nd-highest in the league) against the Suns (lengthening possessions that can lead to added chances for offense).
