Orlando: So, the game on Saturday was wild! The Miami Heat were up big, leading by 25 points at one point. But guess what? They totally collapsed in the fourth quarter.
Jimmy Butler was out sick, which didn’t help Miami’s cause. They were cruising until the Magic decided to turn things around. Cole Anthony was on fire, scoring 35 points, with 27 of those coming in the second half. Talk about stepping up!
It was a crazy fourth quarter. The Heat were up 63-38, but then Orlando went on a 12-0 run to start the final period. Miami just couldn’t hit a shot, going 2-for-18 in that quarter. Ouch!
By the time Caldwell-Pope hit a jumper to give the Magic the lead, it was clear the Heat were in trouble. They ended up losing 121-114, which is a tough pill to swallow after being so far ahead.
Now, the Heat have to regroup quickly. They’re facing the Brooklyn Nets next, and they’ll need to bounce back. Meanwhile, the Magic are feeling good and will take on the Celtics next. What a turnaround!
