Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba step out to attend Heat’s playoff game vs. Celtics… as the Inter Miami captain is joined by his son Mateo in the stands

Inter Miami’s Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba supported a fellow South Florida franchise on Monday night as they attended the Miami Heat’s playoff game vs. the Boston Celtics.

Fresh off a 4-1 win over the weekend at the New England Revolution, the Herons stars stepped out for a night in Miami with the Heat trailing the series 2-1 heading into Game 4.

In a video posted to X by the Heat, Messi, Suarez, Busquets and Alba could be seen entering the Kaseya Center through the arena’s VIP entrance.

The foursome appeared to be in good spirits, as Suarez donned a custom Heat jersey with his name on it, as well as a Heat baseball cap.

Messi was later seen on TNT’s broadcast of the game alongside his son Mateo.

The eight-year-old wore a black Heat jersey to cheer on the home team. 

Messi has dominated MLS so far this season, scoring nine goals in only seven games as the Herons sit top of the Eastern Conference table.

Last weekend, he put on a masterclass as over 65,000 fans packed out New England ‘s Gillette Stadium to watch the soccer legend in action.

According to the Revolution, 65,612 fans were in the house for their game against Miami on Saturday – the largest home crowd in the team’s history. 

After the Revolution took an extremely early first-minute lead, Messi finished the match with two goals and an assist.

The Herons will host the New York Red Bulls this Saturday.
