"Miami either led or was tied with Washington for all but 24 seconds in the blowout victory, led by Pelle Larsson and Simone Fontecchio, who scored 24 points apiece. Fontecchio shot 6-of-8 from 3-point range, while Larsson was 8-of-14 from the floor and 7-of-8 from the free-throw line."
"Bam Adebayo had 20 points, 11 rebounds and eight assists. It was another phenomenal performance against the shorthanded Wizards for the three-time All-Star, who scored 83 points against their Southeast divisional foe last month."
"Practically every team in the NBA beat up on the Wizards this regular season, the Heat included. In their four wins, they outscored Washington by an average of 22.8 points."
The Miami Heat defeated the Washington Wizards 140-117, clinching their fourth consecutive play-in berth. Miami dominated the game, leading for most of the match. Pelle Larsson and Simone Fontecchio each scored 24 points, with Fontecchio excelling in three-point shooting. Bam Adebayo contributed significantly with 20 points, 11 rebounds, and eight assists. Jaime Jaquez Jr. added 23 points, showcasing improved shooting. The Heat can still secure the No. 9 seed in the East with a win against the Atlanta Hawks and a loss by the Charlotte Hornets.
