The Miami Heat outlasted the Los Angeles Lakers in a nail-biting contest, winning 108-107 as both teams struggled in the final minutes, making no points in the last 2:38.

Bam Adebayo delivered a historic performance, securing the first 20-rebound triple-double in Miami Heat history, with 22 points, 20 rebounds, and 10 assists.

Jimmy Butler chipped in with 28 points, helping the Heat maintain control in the closing moments.

The Lakers, already missing Anthony Davis for the final 14 minutes due to a left hip spasm, put up a valiant effort with LeBron James leading all scorers with 30 points.

Austin Reaves almost had a triple-double with 23 points, 10 rebounds, and nine assists, but it wasn’t enough to secure the win on the road.

The game’s intensity was heightened by key plays, including Lowry taking a charge against the towering James and a crucial missed game-winner attempt by the Lakers in the final seconds, ultimately sealing the Heat’s victory.

D’Angelo Russell’s ejection in the fourth quarter further complicated the Lakers’ situation, allowing the Heat to extend their lead when they had a chance to cut it to three points.
