Episode notes

Ja Morant hit a 12-foot fadeaway jumper over Kel’el Ware at the buzzer, suddenly and viciously putting an end to the Heat’s 6-game win streak that had just peaked the night before with a huge win over the defending champion Celtics in Boston.

The final score was the Memphis Grizzlies 110 and the Heat 108.

Morant finished with 30 points for Memphis, including 11 in the 4th quarter and 6 in the final 2:00.

Tyler Herro- who played a beautiful game- scored 35 points- including 18 in the 3rd quarter and 9 in a row in 1 stretch- to lead the Heat.

Bam Adebayo poured in 26 points and Ware finished with 13 points and 15 rebounds.

The Heat were the 3rd team in NBA history to lose at least 10 in a row, then immediately follow that with 6 wins in a row.

The Heat clinched a play-in tournament berth (even though they lost) when Milwaukee beat Philadelphia earlier in the day.

This will be the 3rd straight year the Heat find themselves in the play-in tournament. They of course went from the play-in to the Finals in 2023 and reached the playoffs last year before Boston beat them and sent them home.

Neither team had a double-digit lead in the game, which had a playoff feel and intensity with the Miami crowd letting it rip tonight.
