Miami Heat: Kyle Lowry Reminds Everyone Of His Pure ‘Clutch Ability’

Dominating the fourth, Lowry scored on multiple And One opportunities, as Miami cut the Clippers’ lead to three with five minutes remaining. One came from a four-point play and another was a made layup attempt, as he was hammered by Ivica Zubac.

With Miami trailing 107-108, Lowry created a steal from Reggie Jackson with less than 20 seconds remaining, However, Miami would fall short after Duncan Robinson couldn’t capitalize on a transition three opportunity to put the Heat ahead.

The question stands for whether the Heat could have gone to other options, as Bam Adebayo scored 19 of his 30 points in the first quarter and eventually 30 on the night, while Tyler Herro added in his own 23 points.

The only late-game field goal between the two of them, though, came from a put-back layup from Adebayo at the three-minute mark.

Nonetheless, there’s a safety net with Kyle, who came from a winning organization and is three games shy of 100 playoff appearances. Those are qualities that, quite simply, can never be forsaken in a player.
