3 winners and 2 losers from Heat’s preseason opener v. Raptors

Matt Hanifan of Hot Hot Hoops highlighted three winners and two losers from the Miami Heat's 129-105 preseason opening victory over the Toronto Raptors in Quebec City. The writer designated the Heat's 3-point shooting, Giannis Antetokounmpo's passing, and Exhibit 10 signee Ian Schieffelin as winners, while listing rookie Ryan Conwell and veteran Klay Thompson among the losers.

Miami displayed strong perimeter shooting in the first half, with Andrew Wiggins and Tim Hardaway Jr. making early contributions. Antetokounmpo recorded a team-high seven assists, drawing post-game praise from head coach Erik Spoelstra. In contrast, Thompson went scoreless in 13 minutes, and Conwell shot 3-of-8 in 18 second-half minutes.
