"All five Timberwolves' starters dropped double digits in points, with Anthony Edwards leading the way with 26 points. Minnesota's offense was a stark contrast to Miami's, which had just three players in double digits, and only two were starters. It was not Miami's night, and there are significant reasons why. The Heat couldn't score against the Timberwolves, leading to one of their worst losses of the season"
"Another sore spot was Bam Adebayo's play, who continues his trend of scoring less than 20 points. Adebayo didn't even reach double digits against Minnesota, scratching just seven in 28 minutes. The Heat have hardly any shot, any night, against any opponent, if Adebayo can't score. The Timberwolves were simply the superior team, and the Heat were outmatched across all facets, but Adebayo's numbers are the most alarming aspect of this."
Miami lost 122-94 to Minnesota in a blowout, the second meeting in three games after a 125-115 loss the previous Friday. Minnesota had five starters score in double digits, led by Anthony Edwards with 26 points, while Miami managed only three players in double figures and two starters. No Heat player finished with a positive plus-minus; Tyler Herro returned off the bench and posted a -26 despite contributing 17 points. Bam Adebayo scored seven points in 28 minutes, continuing a trend of sub-20 scoring and diminishing Miami's offensive threat. Norman Powell led Miami with 21 points.
