MIAMI — Observations and other notes of interest from Friday night’s 102-98 loss to the Houston Rockets: – After nine consecutive losses, the Miami Heat need a jolt. – Andrew Wiggins was that jolt. – With his 20-point second period the highest-scoring quarter of his career. – It was an affirmation that something good still might come from the Jimmy Butler trade. – With the timing on cue, with Butler and the Warriors arriving on Tuesday. – Wiggins was back after being sidelined the previous two games with a lower-leg contusion. – “He’s a major part of what we try to do. It’s great to have...

Heat slide reaches 10 with leads again botched in 102-98 loss to surging Rockets

MIAMI – No, not the type of double digits of choice. But the double digits of reality. So make it a 10-game losing streak for the Miami Heat, this time done in by an opponent with a streak of its own, the Houston Rockets extending their winning streak to nine with a 102-98 decision Friday night at Kaseya Center. At 29-41, it officially means the Heat will go without a winning season for the first time since 2018-19, when they closed 39-43. Combined with the Orlando Magic’s Friday night victory over the Washington Wizards, it makes it further likely that the Heat will be playing in the...

CORAL GABLES — The Miami Hurricanes’ baseball series opener against rival Florida State started badly and only got worse. The Hurricanes (13-10, 0-4 ACC) gave up three runs to the Seminoles (19-2, 4-0 ACC) in the first inning and fell 14-1 in a seven-inning, run-rule defeat at Mark Light Stadium in Coral Gables on Thursday night, dropping the first game of a three-game set. Miami has lost seven of its last nine games after starting the season 11-3. “We’ve got to play better, though, in all aspects,” UM coach J.D. Arteaga said. “In all aspects. We’ve got to hit better, we’ve got to pitch...

Winderman’s view: With Heat at a loss, it’s hard to run an offense with no one to run an offense

MIAMI — Observations and other notes of interest from Wednesday night’s 116-113 loss to the Detroit Pistons: – This wasn’t about getting beaten by a banked-in 3-pointer. – It wasn’t about balls bouncing the wrong way. – And as much as the points in the paint hurt, and as much as the defense could have done more . . . – This was about again being unable to run offense when needed most. – This time 20 points in the fourth quarter. – Sound familiar? – Is there a point guard in the house? – As we seemingly have asked over and over and over. – It wasn’t until Bam Adebayo found Kel’el Ware with...

MIAMI — The search for a win, any win, continues. Something that last happened for the Miami Heat on March 3. For a team that often talks about relief points, not enough were forthcoming for Erik Spoelstra’s team in Wednesday night’s 116-113 loss to the Detroit Pistons at Kaseya Center, a game decided by a banked-in 3-pointer by Cade Cunningham just before the final buzzer. “The only thing we have to do now is you just stay the course, you stay with it,” Spoelstra said. “There’s no way to explain some of this. The banked shot at the end, there’s no way to explain that. “We’re all getting...

By COLLIN BINKLEY and CHRIS MEGERIAN, Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump plans to sign an executive order Thursday calling for the shutdown of the U.S. Education Department, according to a White House official, advancing a campaign promise to eliminate an agency that’s been a longtime target of conservatives. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity before an announcement. Trump has derided the Department of Education as wasteful and polluted by liberal ideology. However, finalizing its dismantling is likely impossible without an act of Congress, which created...

NEW YORK — Observations and other notes of interest from Monday night’s 116-95 loss to the New York Knicks: – It was a typical night from a Heat perspective. – Another loss, with the losing streak now at eight. – Another loss to the Knicks, the six loss to New York in the team’s past seven meetings. – Another game of mix-and-matchup lineups, when nothing mixed well or matched up. – From a Madison Square Garden perspective, however, not typical. – With comedian and actor Tracy Morgan wheeled off the court in a wheelchair after taking ill during the third quarter.
