Herro’s 34 not enough to overcome Towns’ 44, as Knicks drop Heat 116-107

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on October 31, 2024. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Heat, NBA, Sports.

MIAMI — This wasn’t for a lack of trying by Tyler Herro. For extended stretches Wednesday night, the sixth-year guard was the Miami Heat’s offense. This was about another former Kentucky Wildcat putting his team over the top — and it wasn’t Herro teammate Bam Adebayo. With Karl-Anthony Towns showing the next level he is capable of lifting his new team, the New York Knicks overcame Herro’s 34 points behind Towns’ 44 to push past the Heat 116-107 at Kaseya Center. “He’s a handful,” Herro said of Towns. “I think he caught a rhythm early and he was able to sustain that throughout the game....

WASHINGTON (AP) — The federal judge presiding over the criminal case of a man charged with trying to assassinate former President Donald Trump declined Tuesday to recuse herself, saying a defense request that she do so was without merit. Lawyers for Ryan Wesley Routh had urged U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon to step aside, saying her handling of Trump’s classified documents prosecution created at least the appearance of bias in favor of the former president and current Republican nominee. They cited the fact that she was appointed to the bench by Trump and has been repeatedly praised by...

Winderman’s view: As Wade reflects on Butler’s role, Butler or bust remains a thing in Heat win

MIAMI — Observations and other notes of interest from Monday night’s 106-98 victory over the Detroit Pistons: – It has been an odd juxtaposition these past few days. – If you didn’t know better, it’s almost as if Dwyane Wade has been sending subtle messages to Jimmy Butler. – Sort of fit in, or fit out. – There was more of the same Monday night, when Wade’s new arena-front sculpture again was celebrated. – On the night he was honored for Sunday’s statue unveiling, Wade was asked pregame about Butler finding his way with this season’s Heat roster, saying Butler “needs to figure out this team...

Not pretty, but Heat push past Pistons 106-98 for first home victory

MIAMI — Winning with style points will have to wait for the Miami Heat. Monday was another example, with a 106-98 grind-it-out victory at Kaseya Center over a Detroit Pistons team that fell to 0-4. Just as the Heat had to go to the wire in Saturday’s road victory over the shorthanded Charlotte Hornets, it took the final minutes to create ample distance to move to 2-1 and gain the first home victory of the season, after last week’s blowout loss to the visiting Orlando Magic. “In this league we’ll take a win no matter who it’s against,” guard Tyler Herro said. With Jimmy Butler stepping up...

The Hurricanes added a UM legacy Sunday evening. Cornerback Camdin Portis committed to Miami. But he’s not just a touted defensive back — he’s the son of Hurricanes great Clinton Portis. The younger Portis is a standout player in his own right. The 2026 cornerback is rated a four-star prospect in 247Sports’ composite rankings. He is listed as the No. 25 cornerback and No. 291 player in his class. Portis, a Charlotte, North Carolina native, had 18 tackles, 10 pass breakups and two interceptions in 2023.

Chris Perkins: Dolphins face the ugly reality that their problems are deeper than Tua’s absence

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on October 28, 2024. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Dolphins, NFL, Sports.

MAIMI GARDENS — The Miami Dolphins’ worst fear, the nightmare scenario they never wanted to admit to or confront, became harsh reality in Sunday’s 28-27 loss to the Arizona Cardinals — their problems go beyond quarterback Tua Tagovailoa’s absence. The Dolphins are now 9-8 in Tua’s past 17 starts. Tua has 24 touchdowns and 15 interceptions in that span. This team needs more than Tua to win games. Realists always knew this was the case. I always knew this was the case. It’s been the case since coach Mike McDaniel took over in 2022. These Dolphins (2-5) are somehow 0-2 after the bye, a time...

No. 6 Miami Hurricanes trounce Florida State to remain undefeated

MIAMI GARDENS — Mark Fletcher Jr. knelt to the ground in the Hard Rock Stadium end zone and pointed to the sky. The sophomore Miami running back and American Heritage alumnus took the field with a heavy heart just days after his father, Mark Fletcher Sr., died. Fletcher scored the No. 6 Hurricanes’ (8-0, 4-0 ACC) first touchdown as they picked up a 36-14 win over scuffling rival Florida State (1-7, 1-6 ACC) Saturday night. The victory was Miami’s first over FSU since 2020 and Mario Cristobal’s first over the Seminoles as UM’s head coach. After Fletcher scored his emotional, game-opening...
