NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Bam Adebayo had 23 points and 12 rebounds in just 22 minutes, and the Miami Heat defeated reeling and injury-depleted New Orleans 153-104 on Friday night in what became the Pelicans' most lopsided regular-season loss in franchise history.
Tyler Herro, who also played just 22 minutes, scored 22 points on 7-of-10 shooting, and Duncan Robinson scored 21 points in 19 minutes for Miami, which never trailed and led by as many as 52.
