Jimmy Butler had a double-double of 32 points and 10 rebounds as the leading scorer of the Miami Heat, who defeated the Charlotte Hornets 114-99. Miami blew most of a 26-point lead in the first half of the game. The Heat started the day in terms of points per game, with the best defense in the NBA, and Charlotte with the best offense in the league, but the defense prevailed, with Charlotte shooting only 39%.
The Heat were with 19 of 19 from the line for the second time this season. Miami had been 19 of 19 or better only twice in its first 33 seasons. Now he has done it two more times in a span of five days. Miami is 190-1 in the past 25 seasons in games in which it led by at least 26 points. The only 26-point lead the Heat lost in that span was at Boston in a regular season finale in April 2016. The record now stands at 191-1.
Bam Adebayo had another double-double of 26 points and 19 rebounds on the night his Olympic gold medalist banner was unveiled, while Tyler Herro came off the bench for 26 points.
For the Hornets, Gordon Hayward had 23 points leading the attack. Miles Bridges had 22 points and eight rebounds, and Kelly Oubre Jr. had 17 points.
