HEAT POSTCAST: Ice-Cold Miami Heat Lose for the 6th Time in 7 Games, 98-86 at Atlanta Hawks
The Miami Heat shot just 32%, and made just seven three-pointers as they finished up their road-trip with a 98-86 loss to the Hawks in Atlanta. Andrew Wiggins scored 23 points for Miami, as the Heat lost for the sixth time in seven games and missed 13 of their first 14 3-point attempts. All-Star Tyler Herro was held to 11 points on 4-for-19 shooting. Herro had just scored 40 points in two of his previous three games. The NBA’s All-Star Weekend 3-Point Shooting Champion was 0-9 from downtown. (4-22 last 2 games) Trae Young scored 11 points and dished out 14 assists, Onyeka Okingwu added 17 points and eight rebounds, Terrance Mann and Caris LaVert each added 15 points off the bench, and NBA steals leader Dyson Daniel swiped seven steals for the Hawks, who led almost the entire game. The 86 points were the fewest allowed by the Hawks in four years. The win moved them past Miami into eighth place in the Eastern Conference. Miami is 2-6 since trading Jimmy Butler to the Warriors on Feb. 5. The Hawks and Heat play again Wednesday in Miami, the third of four meetings between the teams this season.-----Your favorite podcast now has a newsletter!
