Erik Spoelstra faces personnel decisions after another blown lead from his Miami Heat and should turn to veterans Kyle Anderson and Alec Burks to open fourth quarters

The Heat has now wasted a fourth-quarter lead in seven of its last eight losses and in a total of 14 losses this season. Only the Minnesota Timberwolves entered Sunday with more blown fourth-quarter leads (16 blown fourth-quarter leads) than the Heat this season.

This also marks nine games where Miami loses a game where they were leading by more than 15 points, which leads the NBA. Still, Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra remains confident in the group in overcoming, saying because of their “competitive spirit,” the team will be “fine.”
