(MIAMI) – The Miami Heat eventually showed up to a game already behind schedule. Bam Adebayo had 28 points and 11 rebounds and the short-handed Heat got their biggest comeback win of the season, rallying from 19 down to beat the Detroit Pistons 113-107 on Monday night to snap a three-game slide. Miami guard Goran Dragic scored 22 points for the Heat, who got 18 apiece from Duncan Robinson and Kendrick Nunn. Jerami Grant had 27 points for Detroit, but his layup that could have gotten the Pistons within three was blocked by Adebayo with 31 seconds left. Wayne Ellington made seven 3-pointers and scored 24 for the Pistons, who got 21 from Derrick Rose and 15 from Mason Plumlee. Detroit's Blake Griffin was shaken up in the final seconds and limped off the court after the final buzzer. He had five points in 36 minutes. The game was supposed to start at 3 PM Eastern. It started at 8 PM, delayed by the NBA to allow time for COVID-19 tests to be processed.
