Tyler Johnson sets Miami Heat record in loss to Magic

Even in defeat, Tyler Johnson still proved big things can come in small packages.

Scoring a career-high 32 points (the most by a reserve in franchise history) on 65 percent shooting, the third year high-flying guard had himself a game against the inner-state rival Orlando Magic.

Considering Johnson came into last night averaging 12.7 points on the season, the analytics certainly didn’t predict this one.

Looking spry from the moment he checked in, Johnson’s shot proved lethal from the start. Using a wide array of jumpers and drives, Johnson looked nearly unstoppable, missing a mere seven shots on the night.
