The Heat left Brooklyn with a double on Durand’s return
Kevin Durand returned to the Nets, but the Heat were the ones to celebrate the 113-107 win in Brooklyn, with Adebayo putting on an excellent performance.
With Adebayo doing very well with a double-double, the Heat beat the Brooklyn Nets 113-107 and spoiled Kevin Durand’s return from injury. The Nets superstar was superb on his return to the court, scoring 31 points and showing he’s in good shape.
However, Miami persevered, putting energy on the floor despite the back-to-back games it played and now rising to 42-22 this season and staying in first place in the East. The Nets, on the other hand, lead with a record of 32-32. Leading the heat was Adebayo with 30 points and 11 rebounds, while Hiro was also excellent with 27 points. For the Nets, Durand had 31 with 2/7 three-pointers and Brown had 21.
