MIAMI (CBSMiami/SportsDirect) – The Miami Heat’s recent hot streak is about to be put to the ultimate test.
Fatigue may be the only thing that can stop the Golden State Warriors as they go after their eighth consecutive victory Monday against host Miami.
The Warriors will play their fifth game in eight days versus the rejuvenated Heat after putting up 42 points in the third quarter to pull away for a 118-98 victory at Orlando on Sunday afternoon.
Stephen Curry, who reached 20 points for the 10th consecutive game with 27, and Klay Thompson each drained seven shots from 3-point range Sunday as Golden State scored at least 117 for the ninth time in its last 10 contests – the only other being a 107-95 win over Miami.
