With both teams going through a stretch of ragged offense, the Hurricanes closed within 64-60. A three-point play by Norchad Omier (nine points, 14 rebounds) tightened the score.

Filipowski hit two free throws with 2:04 to play. Omier then made one of two free-throw attempts on Miami's next possession.

Trailing 66-64, the Hurricanes missed three shots on one possession, including a would-be go-ahead 3-pointer.

Filipowski went to the foul line and converted both ends of a 1-and-1 with 18.2 seconds to play.
