The Heat upset the No. 1 Celtics despite Tyler Herro's shooting woes as Bam Adebayo comes through the clutch. NBA
Bam Adebayo had 30 points – including the go-ahead jumper in the lane with 20.4 seconds left – to lead the host Miami Heat to a 98-95 win over the Boston Celtics on Tuesday night, January 24 in South Florida.
Adebayo also grabbed a game-high 15 rebounds as Miami won without its leading scorer, Jimmy Butler, who sat due to back stiffness. However, center Robert Williams III, Boston’s leading rebounder and shot-blocker, returned from a hyperextended left knee. He had 11 points, 8 rebounds, and 2 blocks on Tuesday.
The second quarter featured nine lead changes and five ties before Boston took control. The Celtics led 58-50 at halftime, shooting 55% in the second quarter . Miami shot just 25%, including 1-of-9 on three-pointers.
