The Miami Heat haven’t gotten off to the start they were hoping for. Their first two losses of the 2026-27 season left the team needing to respond quickly to prevent the poor results from defining its opening weeks.
With that goal in mind, Miami visited the Charlotte Hornets on Saturday, October 24, looking for its first win. However, things didn’t go as planned.

The Heat erased a huge deficit but still couldn’t get the win
Charlotte built a 23-point lead, but Miami managed to fight its way back into the game. The Heat cut the deficit and eventually tied the score at 100, bringing the excitement back to the matchup and opening the door for a potential comeback in the closing minutes.
However, Charlotte delivered when it mattered most. A four-point play by Grayson Allen proved crucial for the Hornets, who held off Miami’s comeback attempt to secure a 115-110 victory.
Among the moments that stood out was A’ja Wilson’s reaction from the stands. Cameras caught the Las Vegas Aces star looking visibly frustrated as the Heat once again came up short. Her expression didn’t go unnoticed, drawing interest from fans, particularly given her relationship with Bam Adebayo, one of Miami’s key players.
The Miami Heat will get another chance against Dallas
The Heat will look to turn things around on Monday, October 26, when they visit the Dallas Mavericks in search of their first win of the season.
There’s also hope that A’ja Wilson can share a happier night with Adebayo, with a result that finally gives them both a reason to smile.
