Short-handed Warriors battle without Curry, Butler and Green, but Miami surges late for 110-96 win
"Curry sat out with right ankle soreness. He tweaked the ankle in a game Friday at San Antonio and did it again Tuesday in a game at Orlando, but was able to keep playing in both of those contests. The matchup was the finale of a six-game, nine-day trip for the Warriors, who went 3-3 on. Norman Powell scored 25 points, Bam Adebayo returned to score 20 and the Heat pulled away late to top the extremely short-handed Warriors."
"The Warriors gave up 23 turnovers that Miami turned into 34 points 20 more than Golden State scored off Miami's 14 giveaways. The teams combined to shoot 38.4%, the second-worst shooting game in the NBA so far this season. Toronto and Atlanta combined to shoot 37.4% in the Raptors' 109-97 win on Nov. 7. The Warriors got into a 20-4 hole, their largest first-quarter deficit of the season."
Stephen Curry was held out with right ankle soreness after tweaking the ankle in San Antonio and again in Orlando earlier in the week. The Warriors were extremely short-handed with additional absences including Jimmy Butler (back), Draymond Green (illness) and others. Miami beat Golden State 110-96 as Norman Powell scored 25 points and Bam Adebayo returned to score 20. Brandin Podziemski led Golden State with 20, with Quinten Post adding 19 and Buddy Hield 18. The Warriors committed 23 turnovers that Miami converted into 34 points, and the teams combined to shoot just 38.4%.
