- Heat roar back from 14 points down in final quarter of game
- No 8 seed Miami now lead best-of-seven series 3-1
Jimmy Butler scored a Miami playoff record 56 points, and the Heat roared back from 14 points down in the final quarter to stun the Milwaukee Bucks 119-114 on Monday night. The loss puts the NBA’s top overall seed on the brink of early elimination.
The 56 points is also Butler’s career high. He was 19 for 28 from the field, 15 of 18 from the foul line and added nine rebounds for eighth-seeded Miami, who took a 3-1 lead over the Bucks in their Eastern Conference first-round series.
