Cleveland Cavaliers Edge Miami Heat in Tight Matchup, Extend Winning Streak to 12
March 6, 2025 – The Cleveland Cavaliers continued their dominant run in the NBA, securing a hard-fought 112-107 victory over the short-handed Miami Heat on Wednesday night. The win marks Cleveland’s 12th consecutive triumph, solidifying their position as one of the league’s hottest teams.
Despite Miami missing key players, Bam Adebayo delivered a stellar performance, leading the Heat with a season-high 34 points, 12 rebounds, and five assists. However, his efforts weren’t enough to overcome the balanced attack from Cleveland, who saw strong contributions from their starting lineup.
Cleveland’s defense tightened in the closing minutes, forcing crucial stops to seal the victory. Meanwhile, Miami, struggling with injuries and roster adjustments following the trade of Jimmy Butler to the Warriors, put up a resilient fight but ultimately fell short.
The Heat will look to bounce back in their upcoming game against the Atlanta Hawks on March 8.
