Coming into Thursday night’s game against the Brooklyn Nets, it felt like Miami was just spinning a wheel to decide how much Kel’el Ware would play. In three of the Heat's previous six outings, Ware had played less than 20 minutes, including the previous two.
So whether the Wheel of Fortune just happened to land on Ware ahead of Thursday or Erik Spoelstra had an emphiany, the end result was one of Ware’s best games of the season as Miami beat Brooklyn 106-95 to snap a five-game losing streak.
Kel’el Ware scores 22 points in win over the Nets
After playing less than 20 minutes in the last two games, Ware got the start against Brooklyn, and it pushed Bam Adebayo to the four spot.
