Nets snap three-game skid, beat Heat with Miami resting Butler and Adebayo

NEW YORK — Mikal Bridges scored 24 points, Cam Johnson added 19 points and 10 rebounds, and the Brooklyn Nets routed the short-handed Miami Heat 112-97 on Saturday night to snap a three-game losing streak.

Brooklyn got double-figure scoring from its entire starting five, with Dorian Finney-Smith scoring 16 points, Nic Claxton chipping in 13 and Spencer Dinwiddie finishing with 14 points and 11 assists.

Miami was the third team the Nets held to under 100 points this season. The Nets forced the Heat into 17 turnovers.

"Just give our guys credit for continuing to work at it," coach Jacque Vaughn said.
