The Heat have missed on their first four shots to open the game. Bella Larson baseline driving. Good ball swing. Mitchell’s three. Kaboom. Just as the shot clock expired, DaVon collects his 10th triple of the season. Aggressive pace and it’s working for them. Neither a step slow so far tonight. They do get the ball back. 13 straight points for the Trailblazers. Larson got in and he got the bucket. Maybe that’ll take the lid off for good. He’ll post up with Sharp. Got it. Good strong move by Wigs. Season careerhigh three-point percentage, free throw percentage. Keegan drives in with a left hand and missed it. Rebound batted out by Yoic. And here come the Heat.

  1. I’m starting to appreciate Wiggs more and more. Doesn’t always need the ball in his hands. Seems to not need to be the focus on offense, but when you call on him for a timely basket or great defense he’s there. #GoHEAT
