The HEAT couldn’t quite get over the hump in a narrow 129-126 loss to the Timberwolves Wednesday night at AmericanAirlines Arena.
Let’s get into some takeaways.
1. Nunn At It Again
As been the case for the past few outings, Kendrick Nunn fared well both on and off the ball and scored from all three levels.
In particular, he really did some damage in an eight-point third quarter with plays like this:
Nunn finished with a team-high 24 points on 9-of-19 shooting, six assists and two rebounds.
2. Jimmy Does His Thing
Although Jimmy Butler missed the past two games, he didn’t show much rust in his return to action.
