Gabe Vincent, the umpteenth asset released by the Heat | NBA

Arrived in Miami in January 2020 through a “two-way contract”, Gabe Vincent has since continued to progress within the franchise of Pat Riley, renowned for its internal development work. For his third season in Florida, the "combo-guard" has thus settled for good in Erik Spoelstra's rotation. With averages of 8.9 points and 3.2 assists in 23 minutes this season, he brings real added value to the Heat. Like other undrafted players before him, who found their place in Florida.

The Heat correct desperate Knicks | NBA

The Heat starts very strong. By a suffocating defense and effective systems for two award-winning shots from Duncan Robinson, the Floridians take an 11-point lead after four minutes (13-2). The Knicks find themselves chasing the score from the start, not ideal for gaining confidence. Especially since PJ Tucker unexpectedly catches fire (10 points) and the Heat logically prances in the lead after twelve minutes (30-16). It is then Tyler Herro, back after a week in solitary confinement, who takes over for the Heat. The sixth man from Miami scored 9 points in 6 minutes and the gap remained above 15 points. We have to wait for a big pass from RJ Barrett, which allows the Knicks to pick up at -10 halfway through the second quarter (46-36), to find some interest in this meeting. T...
