absence on Friday night, scoring 24 points and leading the visiting <span class=\"hover:entity-accent entity-underline inline cursor-pointer align-baseline\"><span class=\"whitespace-normal\">Miami Heat<\/span><\/span> to an emphatic 128-97 victory over the <span class=\"hover:entity-accent entity-underline inline cursor-pointer align-baseline\"><span class=\"whitespace-normal\">Atlanta Hawks<\/span><\/span>, instantly reigniting Miami\u2019s offense after weeks of inconsistency without him on the floor.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"891\" data-end=\"1135\">Herro had missed 15 consecutive games due to a fractured rib, the latest setback in a season plagued by injuries that forced him to sit out 45 total games, yet he wasted no time making his presence felt in his first appearance since January 15.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1137\" data-end=\"1410\"><strong data-start=\"1137\" data-end=\"1410\">Coming off the bench with clear purpose, Herro shot an efficient 9-of-14 from the field while adding four rebounds and three assists, demonstrating a renewed rhythm and confidence that reflected both his recovery progress and the Heat\u2019s trust in his offensive creation.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1412\" data-end=\"1677\">Miami entered the night in need of a spark to solidify their position in the Eastern Conference playoff picture, and Herro\u2019s energy, shot-making, and composure helped stabilize the team\u2019s rotation while relieving pressure from Miami\u2019s other primary scoring options.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1679\" data-end=\"1916\"><strong data-start=\"1679\" data-end=\"1916\">With the victory, the Heat strengthened their hold on the No. 8 seed, pushing their lead over Atlanta to 3.5 games, an important buffer as both teams navigate the final stretch of the regular season and fight for Play-In positioning.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1918\" data-end=\"2151\">Atlanta\u2019s loss dropped them to 10-16 at home, a disappointing mark considering the Hawks began the night at the start of a five-game homestand designed to help them climb the standings and regain momentum in a competitive conference.<\/p>\n<hr data-start=\"2153\" data-end=\"2156\" \/>\n<div class=\"no-scrollbar flex min-h-36 flex-nowrap gap-0.5 overflow-auto sm:gap-1 sm:overflow-hidden xl:min-h-44 mt-1 mb-5

points, bringing a balanced scoring attack that complemented Herro\u2019s efficient return performance.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2467\" data-end=\"2701\">Adebayo controlled the interior on both ends, using his physicality to create second-chance opportunities and disrupt Atlanta\u2019s attempts to establish rhythm in the paint, reinforcing his role as Miami\u2019s emotional and defensive anchor.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2703\" data-end=\"2935\"><strong data-start=\"2703\" data-end=\"2935\">Powell provided timely scoring bursts and perimeter spacing, helping Miami execute clean offensive possessions and maintain their lead even during moments when Atlanta appeared poised to rally behind improved shooting stretches.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2937\" data-end=\"3139\">His veteran experience allowed Miami to settle into offensive sets with poise, producing stabilizing contributions that prevented Atlanta from turning defensive stops into quick transition scoring runs.<\/p>\n<hr

recorded a brilliant triple-double with 16 points, 16 rebounds, and 11 assists\u2014marking his 11th triple-double of the season and showcasing his emergence as a rising all-around star for Atlanta.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3410\" data-end=\"3665\">Onyeka Okongwu added 22 points, continuing his steady interior scoring production, while Nickeil Alexander-Walker and CJ McCollum each poured in 20 points, providing the Hawks with multiple offensive threats despite their struggles in the opening quarter.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3667\" data-end=\"3947\"><strong data-start=\"3667\" data-end=\"3947\">However, despite those individual performances, Atlanta stumbled out of the gates offensively, shooting only 29.2% from the field in the first quarter while managing just one made three-pointer in eight attempts, allowing the Heat to build a comfortable 29-16 early advantage.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3949\" data-end=\"4182\">Miami capitalized on Atlanta\u2019s slow start by pushing the pace, attacking the rim, and generating quality looks through off-ball movement and early shot-clock actions that forced the Hawks to defend multiple layers of Miami\u2019s offense.<\/p>\n<hr data-start=\"4184\" data-end=\"4187\" \/>\n<div class=\"no-scrollbar flex min-h-36 flex-nowrap gap-0.5 overflow-auto sm:gap-1 sm:overflow-hidden xl:min-h-44 mt-1 mb-5

of smooth mid-range pull-ups, catch-and-shoot jumpers, and patient drives that exposed Atlanta\u2019s defensive miscommunications.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4478\" data-end=\"4707\">But as the second quarter unfolded, Atlanta rediscovered its shooting rhythm, converting seven of 13 attempts from three-point range to mount an impressive comeback and erase what had once appeared to be a growing Heat advantage.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4709\" data-end=\"4933\"><strong data-start=\"4709\" data-end=\"4933\">The Hawks tied the game at 46-46 with 2:12 remaining in the second quarter after Okongwu sank a free throw, completing a surge that electrified the home crowd and put Miami briefly on its heels as momentum swung sharply.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4935\" data-end=\"5154\">Yet the Heat maintained composure, tightening their defensive rotations and executing more disciplined offensive possessions to close the half on an 11-5 run, reclaiming a 57-51 lead as they headed into

complete control by ramping up their defensive pressure, creating turnovers, and converting in transition while executing a 10-0 run midway through the period that pushed their lead back to double digits.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"5408\" data-end=\"5652\">Adebayo and Powell spearheaded the surge by combining physical interior play with timely scoring, while Herro orchestrated the offense with precise passing, controlled pacing, and confident shooting that challenged Atlanta\u2019s defensive coverage.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"5654\" data-end=\"5914\"><strong data-start=\"5654\" data-end=\"5914\">Miami entered the fourth quarter holding an 87-75 lead, a margin built on disciplined execution, improved shot selection, and a renewed defensive presence that minimized Atlanta\u2019s perimeter threats and forced difficult shot attempts late in the shot clock.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"5916\" data-end=\"6139\">The Heat then opened the final quarter with a
