Bam Adebayo led Miami in both scoring and rebounding with 27 points and 15 rebounds, respectively. Newly acquired Andrew Wiggins had 13 points, while Tyler Herro had 14 points.

Miami has lost three straight games and is just 4-6 over the past 10. It has a 12-16 losing record on the road, which doesn’t bode well for Thursday’s game.
