Game Center: Heat at Hornets, box score and play-by-play
Brandon Miller doesn’t hesitate
Miller took 29 shots and lived at the line, making 11 of 12 free throws. This pull-up came with Charlotte already in front, and it set the tone for a night in which he finished plus-20, the best mark on the floor.
A block, a three and a 15-0 run
Moussa Diabaté’s rim protection turned straight into offense, and Grayson Allen’s triple capped a 15-0 burst. Charlotte won the third quarter 30-17, which is how the lead reached 23.
Miami starts the charge
Down 100-85 with under nine minutes left, the Heat began to chip away. Davion Mitchell ran the comeback with 22 points and 10 assists, and Charlotte managed just four points over a long stretch as Miami’s run grew to 27-4.
Grayson Allen’s four-point play
With the score tied at 104 and 3:21 to play, Allen drew contact on a three and made it, then hit the free throw. It stopped Miami’s momentum cold and gave Charlotte a lead it never gave back. Allen finished with 20 points off the bench.
Klay Thompson keeps it close
Thompson’s fourth three of the night cut the gap to 110-107 with 1:16 left. The Hornets closed it out at the line, where both teams went 23 of 25 for the game.
Charlotte seals it
The postgame handshakes told the story of a win Charlotte had to earn twice. The Hornets moved to 2-1, while Miami’s comeback fell short despite 20 points from Bam Adebayo.
