Miami Heat vs Oklahoma City Thunder Box Score on Mar 18, 2019

Goran Dragic scored 26 points off the bench to lead the visiting Miami Heat to a 116-107 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday night.

The Heat's reserves were plenty productive, not only with Dragic hitting six 3-pointers but with Dwyane Wade scoring 25 in his final game at Oklahoma City.

Wade helped the Heat win the 2012 NBA Finals over the Thunder.

James Johnson also added 14 off the bench as Miami's reserves outscored Oklahoma City's 67-10. Dragic also added 11 assists. Kelly Olynyk had 18 points and nine rebounds to help Miami win for the seventh time in nine games.

Oklahoma City was playing without Russell Westbrook, who was suspended after picking up his 16th technical foul of the season in a Saturday loss to the Golden State Warriors.

Paul George led the Thunder with 31 points, and he grabbed nine rebounds. Jeremi Grant added a career-high 27 points and 10 boards, Dennis Schroder scored 20 points, and Steven Adams had 10 points and 12 rebounds.

The Thunder didn't appear to miss Westbrook much early as they scored the game's first 13 points.

Schroder, starting in Westbrook's spot, had four assists in the first 5:17 of the game.

But when Schroder left the floor, things quickly crumbled for Oklahoma City, and they could never quite recover. Schroder had only two more assists.

Miami missed its first eight shots before hitting seven of its next nine to kick-start a 17-2 run that put the Heat up front by the time the first quarter was over. The Heat led by 12 early in the second quarter.

The Thunder lost for the third consecutive game and for the ninth time in their past 13.

Oklahoma City turned the ball over 19 times.

In addition to playing without Westbrook, the Thunder were also without Nerlens Noel, who was a late scratch because of a thigh injury.

Noel's absence was magnified when Adams picked up his fifth foul less than three minutes into the second half.

The Heat were without Justise Winslow and Rodney McGruder. McGruder was sidelined due to a sore left knee, and Winslow missed his second consecutive game with a right thigh bruise.
