MIAMI — – Norman Powell<\/a> scored 30 points against his former team, Bam Adebayo<\/a> had 27 points and 14 rebounds in 32 minutes and the Miami Heat<\/a> downed the reeling Los Angeles Clippers 140-123 on Monday night.<\/p>\n

Tyler Herro<\/a> and Andrew Wiggins<\/a> each scored 22 for the Heat, who trailed by two early in the second quarter before going on a 30-2 run. Miami also hit 24 3-pointers, tying a franchise record done on two previous occasions.<\/p>\n

Miami went on a 12-0 run in the first 2:02 of the third quarter, all on 3-pointers, two of them by Adebayo. That turned a 20-point halftime lead into a 32-point edge and the outcome was not in serious doubt again.<\/p>\n

Kawhi Leonard<\/a> scored 36 and Ivica Zubac<\/a> finished with 16 points and 13 rebounds for the Clippers. They started the season 3-2 and have gone 2-14 since, falling to 5-16 – the worst 21-game start for the franchise since a 4-17 beginning to the 2010-11 season.<\/p>\n

James Harden<\/a> scored 11 points for the Clippers in 20 minutes, and didn’t play in the final 22:34. The Clippers were outscored by 39 points when he was on the floor.<\/p>\n

Powell had 11 points in the 30-2 spurt, one where Miami shot 9 for 12 while the Clippers missed all 11 of their shots. Back-to-back 3s by Powell finished off the run.<\/p>\n

The Clippers made things a bit interesting in the fourth, with Leonard scoring 19 points in that quarter and getting his team within 12 with 2 minutes left. But Miami scored the next nine points – a three-point play by Herro, then 3-pointers from Powell and Wiggins to put the game away.<\/p>\n

It was Miami’s fifth time reaching the 140-point mark this season, after getting there a total of eight times in the franchise’s first 37 seasons.<\/p>\n
