Vincent Helps Heat Beat Nuggets

Gabe Vincent scored 23 points to help the Miami Heat win against the Denver Nuggets (111-108), tying the series (1-1) in the NBA Finals last night. Bam Adebayo contributed 21 points and grabbed nine rebounds, while Jimmy Butler added 21 points and nine assists for Miami, which will host Game 3 on Wednesday. The championship will be determined in a best-of-seven series. The Heat (36-25) excelled in the fourth quarter to compensate for their initial loss. Nikola Jokic shone for the Nuggets, scoring 41 points and grabbing 11 rebounds, alongside Jamal Murray, who scored 18 points and provided ten assists, but Murray's three-pointer attempt with 1.9 seconds left failed. Denver led (57-51) at halftime and (83-75) after three quarters before Miami rallied, outscoring them (32-12) in the first eight minutes of the fourth quarter.
