Heat continue homestand against Hornets
New Orleans (2-3) at Miami (4-3), 7:30 pm EST
MIAMI (Ticker) -- The Miami Heat appear to have figured things
out at home.
After a shaky start, the Heat seek their fourth straight home
win when they host the New Orleans Hornets on Tuesday.
Miami dropped its home opener to Indiana on November 3 but has
turned it around of late here. It is 2-0 on a four-game
homestand after Saturday's 108-99 victory over Charlotte.
Jason Williams scored 22 points and Dwyane Wade added 19, seven
rebounds and seven assists for the Heat, which had its best
scoring output of the season.
Meanwhile, the Hornets are coming off an 0-2 homestand after
Saturday's 109-103 loss to Dallas.
Rookie Chris Paul had his finest effort of a fantastic start by
scoring 26 points on 10-of-14 shooting. He chipped in five
assists and reserve guard Speedy Claxton had seven for the
Hornets, who shot 56 percent (39-of-70) in a losing cause.
Miami has won three straight and five of the last six meetings
between the teams.
