The Miami Heat ended their three-game losing streak with a 114-98 victory over the Golden State Warriors at Chase Center on Tuesday night. Bam Adebayo delivered a strong performance, recording 19 points, nine rebounds, and five assists, including two critical dunks late in the game.

Nikola Jovic contributed 20 points off the bench, hitting back-to-back 3-pointers midway through the fourth quarter to help Miami secure the win. Jaime Jaquez Jr. added 18 points, while Duncan Robinson dished out eight assists along with 12 points on 4-of-5 shooting from beyond the arc.

Stephen Curry led Golden State with 31 points, shooting 8-of-17 from three-point range. Trayce Jackson-Davis supported him with 19 points and seven rebounds. Draymond Green nearly posted a triple-double with seven points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists. However, the Warriors shot just 28% from beyond the arc, leaving them unable to keep pace with Miami’s balanced attack.

The Heat improved to 18-17 despite missing Jimmy Butler, who served the third game of his seven-game suspension for conduct detrimental to the team. Miami also benefited from a 40% shooting night from deep, with Jovic, Robinson, and Tyler Herro leading the charge.

Golden State, now 18-18, struggled for a second consecutive game at home, with fans booing the team and leaving early. This came after a 30-point loss to the Sacramento Kings on Sunday. Buddy Hield, who came off the bench, had 11 points, eight rebounds, and five assists for the Warriors.

Miami demonstrated resilience after a grueling double-overtime loss to the Kings the previous night. Adebayo’s leadership, combined with Jovic’s scoring outburst, fueled the Heat’s ability to maintain energy throughout the back-to-back. The team also benefited from solid ball movement, finishing with 32 assists compared to Golden State’s 28.

The Warriors were without Brandin Podziemski and Gary Payton II, both sidelined with injuries. Meanwhile, Kyle Anderson chipped in five points, five rebounds, and four assists for the struggling Warriors, who are now searching for answers to regain consistency.
