The Miami Heat bounced back from a grueling loss to the Sacramento Kings in overtime with a much-needed victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday night.

Leading the way was Goran Dragic, who finished his night with a game-high 30 points on 10-of-18 shooting from the field including a huge go-ahead bucket with 15.2 seconds to go.

“The last three games I have really had a lot of confidence,” Dragic said. “Sometimes you know when D-Wade (Dwyane Wade) is out, Hassan [Whiteside] and J-Rich (Josh Richardson) [was out last] game, I have to be aggressive, I need to make things happen. I’m just doing my job, nothing special.”

After the game, Wade commended his starting point guard for giving the team a crucial win with the Eastern Conference playoff race being so tight:

Big big game by @Goran_Dragic and a much needed win for us. Back home we come #HeatNation!

The Heat are now tied with the Milwaukee Bucks for the eighth seed in the East and are a full six games ahead of the ninth-seeded Detroit Pistons.

Miami will look to continue its winning ways with a home matchup against the Denver Nuggets on Monday night.
