Herro Scores 32, Adebayo Nears Triple-double And Heat Never Trail In 119-108 Win Over Pelicans

Tyler Herro scored 32 points, Bam Adebayo flirted with a triple-double and the Miami Heat beat the New Orleans Pelicans 119-108 on Wednesday night.

Adebayo finished with 23 points, nine rebounds and 10 assists for Miami, which got 17 points from Duncan Robinson.

Trey Murphy III scored 34 for the Pelicans, who played on the same day that at least 15 people were killed in New Orleans when a truck drove into a crowd of New Year's revelers on Bourbon Street in an attack that President Joe Biden described as "despicable."

The Pelicans - who never led - lost for the 29th time in their last 32 games and are 1-20 in their last 21 contests.
