Tucker had another solid game, adding six points and ten rebounds. Tucker, as always, was guarding 1-5.
He guarded anyone from Paul George on the perimeter to down low on center, Ivica Zubac. Again, Miami just couldn’t hold on to leads in Los Angeles .
With Kyle Lowry taking over in the fourth quarter, it looked to be a comeback in the making, but it was too late. With Miami losing close back to back games, going against the Utah Jazz in Utah would never be an easy night out.
But Miami came out and played really well… at least, until the fourth quarter came around. Even in a win, Miami made it more of a game then it should have been.
For the sake of the purpose here though, that inability to put teams away is something to be shelved for later. The guy who really impressed, again, against Utah was Tucker.
He finished the game with thirteen points, eleven rebounds, three assist and made three range shots to tie it all together. It was, by far, his best game as the member of the Miami Heat.
