CHARLOTTE BOBCATS 88, MIAMI HEAT 74

A strong second quarter was more than enough to lift the Charlotte Bobcats to a win in their opening game at the Pepsi Pro Summer League.

The Bobcats went into halftime holding a 11 point lead and never looked back, topping the Miami Heat, 88-74.

Former Alabama standout Jarmareo Davidson led the Bobcats with 16 points, hitting 7-of-11 shots in 30 minutes of action. Davidson was joined in double figures by Ryan Hollins, who hit 9-of-10 free throws en route to 15 points.

The Bobcats had plenty of NBA experience on the floor with Adam Morrison and Raymond Felton each scoring 14 points. Morrison played 30 minutes and was 2-of-6 from the field and 10-of-11 from the charity stripe, while Felton hit 4-of-5 shots and finished with eight assists.

The Heat was led by former Delta State player Jeremy Richardson with 17 points, while first round selection Daequan Cook added 13 and Chris Quinn scored 12.
