Jimmy Butler established itself as the great protagonist of the early morning NBA, signing one of the best winning baskets of the season. With 7 tenths to go and with the score tied at 95, Spoelstra drew and Butler executed. Alley-oop and victory for Florida, 97-95 against the Rockets.
There are not many other possible resources to finish a game with only 7 tenths to go and with a throw-in. The Heat found a way, with a big Spoelstra slate, and Jimmy Butler culminated the alley-oop for the Miami rave. Credit to Gabe Vincent’s pass.
Butler was not having his best night, but his final game was decisive. He scored 10 of his 16 points in the last five minutes, including the game-winning basket.
