The Heat have been struggling for weeks to get into the Eastern Conference playoff picture amidst several of their key players missing significant time.
With most teams in the conference other than the Philadelphia 76ers and Brooklyn Nets playing below expectations, this is a bad time for the Heat to squander opportunities such as Wednesday’s game.
At one point, Miami had a huge lead, but it couldn’t stop the Warriors from chipping away at its lead and forcing overtime.
For the Heat, Bam Adebayo had a strong game with 24 points while Jimmy Butler had a triple-double.
