The Miami Heat earned their 13th victory of the season with a 116-114 win over the Charlotte Hornets. The Heat got contributions across the board from their key players and some unexpected sources. Heat Head Coach Erik Spoelstra spoke postgame about the Heat’s win.
“I can’t speak enough about Kevin and his leadership and presence,” Miami coach Erik Spoelstra said. “He has that highly decorated championship-level experience. He’s great for our young guys, but boy is he great for Jimmy. They have a great connection and symmetry when they’re out there together.”
