What's happening with Miami Heat
teams.ie Editorial TeamThe Miami Heat are in the middle of an absolutely historic stretch, with Bam Adebayo putting on one of the greatest individual performances in NBA history by dropping 83 points against the Hornets on Tuesday night — second only to Wilt Chamberlain's legendary 100-point game — though questions linger about whether some of the scoring was stat-padding in a blowout. Meanwhile, the Heat's season took a devastating turn when star forward Jimmy Butler suffered a torn ACL against the Golden State Warriors, sidelining him for the rest of the campaign and throwing Miami's playoff hopes into serious doubt. To make matters worse, coach Erik Spoelstra is still fuming over a controversial play-in game loss to Charlotte where he believes LaMelo Ball should have been ejected for tripping Miami's center, a no-call that ended the Heat's season prematurely. With Adebayo's historic night offering a rare bright spot and Butler's injury casting a shadow over their future, the Heat are facing a turbulent period as they reassess their championship aspirations.
