MIAMI -

The Miami Heat will be playing without two of its biggest stars when it faces the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday night.

Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh will both sit out because of injury, according to head coach Erik Spoelstra.

That leaves LeBron James to carry the load against the Raptors.

The Heat need to win if they are to catch the Chicago Bulls in the standings and be the number one seed in the Eastern Conference.

Going into Wednesday night, the Heat were 43-17 and the Chicago Bulls were 46-15.

Heat/Raptors tip off at 7:30 p.m. at the American Airlines Arena.
