WASHINGTON, USA – The Miami Heat’s 13-game NBA winning streak ended Saturday, February 11 (Sunday in Manila) in Philadelphia, where they fell 117-109 to the 76ers.
Robert Covington, Nerlens Noel and Dario Saric scored 19 points apiece for the 76ers and Ersan Ilyasova and Gerald Henderson contributed 14 as Philadelphia won their second straight game.
Goran Dragic poured in 30 points to lead Miami, whose winning streak was the longest in the league this season.
James Johnson scored 26 for Miami, Tyler Johnson added 17 and Wayne Ellington scored 16.
Hassan Whiteside collected 12 points and 19 rebounds for the Heat.
It was Miami’s first defeat since January 13. Their 13 straight wins in less than a month were more than the 11 they had mustered in the 3 previous months of the season.
Trailing 100-89, the Heat scored 7 straight points and closed to within 4 on Johnson’s 3-point play with less than 5 minutes remaining.
But Covington answered with a 3-pointer and after a shot-clock violation from the Heat the 76ers put it away with two free throws from Saric. – Rappler.com
