Antetokounmpo scores 30 and Heat outlast Jazz 115-109

SALT LAKE CITY — Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 30 points, Davion Mitchell added 19 points, and the Miami Heat outlasted the depleted Utah Jazz 115-109 on Tuesday night. The Heat also got 14 from Pelle Larsson but needed late blocks from Klay Thompson and Bam Adebayo to secure their third win in their last four games. Antetokounmpo iced his sprained right wrist in a heavy wrap when he was on the bench but it didn’t seem to bother him on the court. He shot 12 for 21 and grabbed 11 rebounds. He now has 21,836 points and passed Gary Payton to become the 39th leading scorer in NBA history. Despite the Jazz's ninth straight loss, Utah's two teenagers gave the Jazz hope for the future. Rookie Darryn Peterson nearly set his career high (26) for the second game in a row with 25 points and Ace Bailey scored 23. Utah's Isaiah Collier, a notoriously poor shooter who had not made a 3-pointer this season, made four consecutive shots from behind the arc in the fourth quarter to cut Miami's lead to 101-93. Then Svi Mykhailiuk made back-to-back baskets to cut the lead to 112-107 in the final minute but it was too late for the Jazz, who were missing four starters to injury — Lauri Markkanen (wrist), Keyonte George (ankle), Jaren Jackson Jr. (knee), and Jusuf Nurkic (foot). Antetokounmpo's shooting sparked the Heat to a 15-2 run in the third quarter to give the Heat the cushion they needed and send them home with a 3-2 record on their five-game road trip. Larsson hit a 3-pointer with 6:58 left in the second quarter to cap a 13-1 run and make it 49-32 for Miami. The Jazz, who have been hurt by turnovers all season, had 18 to just eight for the Heat.

Cone eyes instant impact from Boatwright in Gilas debut

MANILA, Philippines — Tim Cone welcomes the entry of Bennie Boatwright as he’s set to make his debut as Gilas Pilipinas’ naturalized player in the fifth window of the FIBA World Cup 2027 Asian Qualifiers late this November. “He’s a talented guy; he’s gonna lend a lot of talent to the team and size and perimeter shooting, so he’s a welcome addition,” Cone said Tuesday night, during the post-game chat with sportswriters after Barangay Ginebra ousted San Miguel Beer, 110-94 in their PBA Season 50 Governors’ Cup quarterfinal series to seal the last semifinal spot.  Cone though recognizes the reality that the 6-10 former USC Trojan might struggle initially as he steps up the plate to take the spot of Justin Brownlee. “We’re certainly gonna miss Justin, however, ’cause Justin, he just knows what to do. “And that’s gonna be a difference,” Cone said, noting how much value the well-loved Ginebra resident import and Gilas naturalized player has brought to the teams he has played. “He’s gonna maybe struggle a little bit with what he’s supposed to do and how he’s supposed to do it, but we’re hoping his talent will win out on that,” added Cone, in what he could expect as an initial adjustment on the part of Boatwright. Boatwright joins the team in good playing condition as he’s currently seeing action for the Fujian Sturgeons in the Chinese Basketball Association. The 6-10 former San Miguel reinforcement adds size as he joins Kai Sotto, AJ Edu, Quentin Millora-Brown and Mike Phillips who were all named to the final 12 that will see action against Syria on Nov. 27.
