An attempted fourth quarter rally and another All-Star caliber performance from Tyler Herro weren’t enough for the Miami Heat (15-14) in a 120-110 matinee loss

Just two days after Tyler Herro’s game-winning jumper lifted the Heat to a quality win over the Magic in Orlando, the Heat fell to the Atlanta Hawks 120-110 on Saturday afternoon at State Farm Arena. That game-to-game inconsistency has had the Heat hovering around .500 all season, dropping to 15-14 after Saturday’s defeat.

In a game where Trae Young didn't have it going scoring-wise, Johnson came up big, making the right read, whether it was a pass to Garrison Mathews for a three, a lob to Clint Capela, or taking matters into his own hands and scoring in the paint.

Jalen Johnson scored 28 points and the Atlanta Hawks closed out a four-game homestand, winning a third straight contest, 120-110 over the Miami Heat on Saturday.

Atlanta Hawks close out holiday homestand with a win over Miami Heat. Jalen Johnson leads the team with 28 points.

Despite the ongoing “whispers” linking Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine to the Los Angeles Lakers for nearly a year, a potential deal between the two teams appears unlikely, NBA reporters Joe Cowley of the Chicago Sun-Times.

The game didn't go in their favor, as they lost 141-133, but star guard Zach LaVine had a monster night. LaVine finished with a game-high 37 points to go along with seven assists and five rebounds in the loss.
