SAN FRANCISCO – Bam Adebayo had 19 points, nine rebounds and five assists with two timely dunks along the way, and the Miami Heat ended a three-game losing streak by beating the Golden State Warriors 114-98 on Tuesday night.

Stephen Curry scored 31 points, Trayce Jackson-Davis added 19 and Draymond Green contributed seven points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists. The Warriors were booed by the home crowd and many frustrated fans left Chase Center early for a second straight game.

Nikola Jovic scored midway through the fourth quarter en route to 20 points and Jaime Jaquez Jr. scored 18 points as Miami won back-to-back games following a 123-118 double-overtime loss in Sacramento on Monday.

Buddy Hield had 11 points, eight rebounds and five assists off the bench for a Warriors team that was coming off a 30-point win over the Kings on Sunday.

Takeaways

Heat: Jimmy Butler had to sit out the third game of his seven-game suspension for conduct detrimental to the team.

Warriors: Brandin Podziemski missed his fifth straight game with a right abdominal strain and Gary Payton II sat out his seventh straight game on Christmas Day against the Lakers because of a left calf strain he injured. Coach Steve Kerr expects both guards to make the upcoming four-game trip and play again.
