The Los Angeles Clippers take on the Miami Heat at FTX Arena on Friday night.

The Clippers (25-25) have been up and down all season while missing key players for large swaths of games, but they'll come into Friday's contest having three of their last four contests. Their most recent success came Wednesday night, when they notched a 111-102 win over the Orlando Magic. Amir Coffey paced the Clippers with 19 points, complementing them with six rebounds, five assists and one steal. Luke Kennard totaled 17 points, five rebounds and one assist. Terance Mann recorded 14 points, two assists and one steal. Eric Bledsoe finished with 13 points, four boards, three assists and one steal. Nicolas Batum posted 12 points, seven rebounds, two assists and one steal.

The Clippers are likely to list Marcus Morris (personal) as questionable at best for Friday's game. Paul George (elbow) will remain out.

The Heat (31-17) has been in much better form than their opponent for most of the season, and they'll enter Friday's contest having won three of their past four contests. Their most recent success came Wednesday night, when they toppled the New York Knicks by a 110-96 score. Duncan Robinson paced the Heat with 25 points, supplementing them with two rebounds, one assist and one block. Jimmy Butler managed 22 points, six rebounds, five assists and two steals. Tyler Herro furnished 21 points, six rebounds and four assists. P.J. Tucker poured in 20 points.

The Heat are likely to list Kyle Lowry (personal), KZ Okpala (wrist) and Chris Silva (non-injury related) as questionable at best for Friday's contest. Markieff Morris (conditioning) is expected to remain out.

Friday's game marks the first of two meetings between the teams this season. The Clippers own a 1-0 series lead, having notched a 112-109 victory Nov. 11.
