Andrew Wiggins poured in 28 points on 9-of-10 shooting to lead the Miami Heat to a 136-120 win over the Memphis Grizzlies. Norman Powell added 25 points.

Andrew Wiggins finished 9‑of‑10 from the field, scoring 28 points and reaching the 15,000‑point milestone early in the third quarter. Norman Powell contributed 25 points, while Tyler Herro added 14, Bam Adebayo 13, Kasparas Jakucionis and Jaime Jacquez Jr. each 12, and Kel’el Ware posted 11 points with 15 rebounds. Miami outscored Memphis 39‑26 in the third quarter, finished with 18 turnovers and 36 assists, and the game was marred by an altercation in which Scotty Pippen Jr. shoved Myron Gardner, leading to both players’ ejection.

Memphis was without star guard Ja Morant and had other key players sidelined, while the Heat will face Milwaukee next, and the Grizzlies will host Sacramento on Monday.
