"Bam Adebayo continued his torrid stretch on both ends of the floor, scoring a game-high 23 points on 11-of-24 shooting with nine rebounds, a remarkable six steals, four assists and one block. He struggled from beyond the arc, knocking down just one of his seven long-range attempts. But the three-time All-Star got whatever he wanted inside the paint, where he converted on each of his 10 remaining buckets, including seven at the rim."
"Second-year center Kel'el Ware posted yet another double-double, scoring 11 points with 13 rebounds on 5-of-8 shooting in 29 minutes. Though Ware also plucked five steals, making him and Adebayo the first set of centers in NBA History to record five steals in the same game."
"Miami led by 13 points with 10:30 left and, frankly, it was lucky it wasn't closer given its chaotic third quarter. Nevertheless, back-to-back Simone Fontecchio 3-pointers quickly put the Heat up 19, springing a 16-4 run over the ensuing 5:43, giving them a 25-point advantage. From that point on, the game was all but sealed."
