The Warriors got 32 points from Jordan Poole in new bench role to beat Miami Heat, despite a season-low nine points from Steph Curry.
SAN FRANCISCO — The Golden State Warriors rode the COVID-19 wave to shorthanded wins over two conference rivals, but on Monday reminded the league of what they’re capable of at full strength, or at least getting closer to it.
The Heat represented the East two years ago in the NBA Finals and hold the fourth spot in the conference standings this season, but they were missing eight players, including starting center Bam Adebayo, and were playing the second leg of a back-to-back. Leading scorer Jimmy Butler injured his ankle on a drive in the second half and didn’t return, either.
