Heat Defeats 76ers 117-105, Extends Philadelphia's Losing Streak to 12 Games

The Miami Heat secured a 117-105 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers, marking Philadelphia's 12th consecutive loss. Despite being without key players Bam Adebayo and Andrew Wiggins, the Heat were propelled by Duncan Robinson's 21 points and Kel'el Ware's standout performance of 19 points and a career-high 17 rebounds. Miami struggled initially, allowing the undermanned 76ers to close a 14-point deficit and tie the game before pulling away in the fourth quarter with a decisive 34-22 scoring advantage. Tyler Herro contributed 20 points despite seven turnovers, while Quentin Grimes and Lonnie Walker IV each scored 29 for Philadelphia. This win keeps Miami in contention for a play-in spot in the Eastern Conference, now just a half-game behind the Chicago Bulls. The Heat's next matchup is critical as they face Chicago on Wednesday, adding further importance to their playoff aspirations.
