In their 16-point rout over the Wizards inside Kaseya Center, the Heat scored 152 points, one off from tying the franchise record.<\/p>\n<p>The final score was far closer than the game indicated. Miami led by as much as 35 points and entered the fourth quarter with 122 points, the most through three quarters in franchise history. However, in the final quarter, the Wizards outscored Miami 45-30 in the third quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Still, the Heat shot 58.1 percent and 43.6 percent from 3-point range. Three Heat players reached 20-plus points, led by Jaime Jaquez Jr.\u2019s 32 points \u2014 a season high \u2014 and Kel\u2019el Ware\u2019s 24 points. Jaquez scored 22 of his 32 points in the paint, while Ware gobbled up a team-most 19 rebounds while swatting eight shots, also a new season high.<\/p>\n<p>Andrew Wiggins tallied 21 points on 7-of-11 shooting; Pelle Larsson had 16 points, seven rebounds and four dimes while Kasparas Jakucionis was one assist shy of a 14-point double-double.<\/p>\n<p>The Wizards were significantly shorthanded, missing Alex Sarr, Trae Young, Kyshawn George and Anthony Davis, who has yet to suit up with Washington. They\u2019re also the worst team in the East, so it doesn\u2019t take a genius to figure out that they\u2019re not trying to win at this point of the season. <\/p>\n<p>***<\/p>\n<p>To check out our other content, click\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/hothothoops.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Follow Hot Hot Hoops on Twitter\/X\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/hothothoops?s=20\" rel=\"nofollow\">here<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>Follow Hot Hot Hoops on Instagram\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/hothothoops?fbclid=PAAaZK-uxa3cMPUQcM2z6aGmK3faJ-G1R7YKtEOcPJNPO4VwfOvw1epBIoCyk_aem_Ad_aZ7zQwWkfVN5rHfd0UkIWrYEnU4j4Ulz0SRK__Qt1738L-NeQ3cZC5voFks7V6K8\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>Check out Hot Hot Hoops on Facebook\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/share\/1GUQbKhsRp\/?mibextid=wwXIfr\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>Subscribe to our YouTube channel\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/hothothoops\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">here<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"(Mandatory Credit: Issac Baldizon\/NBAE via Getty Images) Nearly one month ago, Miami Heat big Bam Adebayo set the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":699017,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3780],"tags":[52336,8457,7,144,52338,87813,189,52339,87814,6,682,468,3892,683],"class_list":{"0":"post-699016","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-washington-wizards","8":"tag-2025-26-miami-heat-game-recap","9":"tag-2025-26-miami-heat-season","10":"tag-basketball","11":"tag-heat","12":"tag-heat-game-recap","13":"tag-heat-wizards","14":"tag-miami-heat","15":"tag-miami-heat-game-recap","16":"tag-miami-heat-washington-wizards","17":"tag-nba","18":"tag-washington","19":"tag-washington-wizards","20":"tag-washingtonwizards","21":"tag-wizards"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/116350067582384792","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/699016","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=699016"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/699016\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/699017"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=699016"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=699016"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=699016"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
