In Miami, the Heat snuck past the Nuggets 93-91. The Heat won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Heat answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Heat's veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Heat rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
