What free throw record did the Miami Heat break against the OKC ... (AS English)

Not only did the Heat set a new NBA record, but their star put his name in the history books as well and best of all, they got the win.

What followed, was a Gabe Vincent 3-pointer that he was fouled making, which meant the resulting free throw took the score to 97-96 in Miami’s favor. Regarding who sits above them, that would be [James Harden ](https://www.nba.com/player/201935/james-harden)who has 24 without a miss in a game for the Houston Rockets on December 3rd, 2019 and [Dirk Nowitzki, ](https://www.nba.com/stats/player/1717/career)who made 24 without a miss for Dallas in a playoff game against the Thunder on May 17th, 2011. With his perfect record from the line, Butler tied the Yet, in the face of it all a win was secured and history was made. Miami entered the fourth with an 89-88 lead and Butler on the bench - he had played the entire third quarter. Though Butler was in stellar form, so too was the supporting cast. On the night, the forward scored 35 points, but 23 of those were from the line where he had 23 attempts. If you watched the Miami Heat’s game on Tuesday night, you got to witness a game that had everything you hope for as a sports fan.

From missing starters, to internal fights to a dramatic finish and of course, a piece of NBA history. Indeed, Dedmon even hit a massage gun on to the court during play from the sideline. As the ball left his hands, Butler bent his knees a little and watched - as we all did - with bated breath as the ball floated toward the rim.

Former Miami Heat First-Round Pick Michael Beasley Gets Into ... (Yardbarker)

Former Miami Heat No. 1 draft pick Michael Beasley spent 11 years in the NBA and had a solid career. Now, he is moving onto the fashion business.

On the opposite side of the bracket, the 49ers are heavy favorites to reach the NFC title game. Well, there are going to be plenty of headlines and some big moves that will shape the future are already coming into play. "If I had to choose between my wife and keeping Luka on the Mavs, catch me at my lawyer's office prepping for a divorce," Cuban was quoted saying. Still, the Mavericks know that Luka is the present and the future of the team, and they want to give him everything to keep the Slovenian player happy. Hayes has three-plus SOG in three of his last four, seven of his last nine at home and two of his last three against the Capitals. If he had to choose between Doncic and his wife, Tiffany Stewart, he wouldn't hesitate and go with the guard. Mark Cuban Has His Goals In Life Pretty Clear Back in 2020, he made a bold claim about Luka Doncic, comparing the 2023 MVP candidate to his wife and picking the former No. Luka Doncic landed in Dallas ready to make that franchise win another NBA title, and even though he's shown his talent time and time again, Luka hasn't been able to take them to the NBA Finals. It was first reported the following Friday that Brady was "preparing to retire from the game" and could make the announcement "in the coming days." I’m gonna look at myself in the mirror, everybody’s gonna look at their self in the mirror, and say ‘what do we really want out of this?

Miami Sinks the Thunder With Record Night at the Free-Throw Line (The New York Times)

The Heat were 40 for 40 on free throws, winning the game on Jimmy Butler's 35th point (and 23rd free throw) of the game.

Dantley’s 28 tied the regular-season record, which was set by Wilt Chamberlain of the Philadelphia Warriors, who made 28 of 32 free throws in a game in March 1962 game against the Knicks that was played in Hershey, Pa. He had games with 26, 27 and 28 free throws made in the 1980s, although none of them were perfect. In a promotion between quarters, a blindfolded spectator made the same number of free throws as Dudley did all game. The expansion Toronto Raptors hold the “record,” with a .000 free-throw percentage in a But it comes with an asterisk: They were somehow awarded only three total free-throw attempts in the game. James Harden was 24 for 24 in December 2019. In 2000, the Indiana Pacers were 40 for 41 (Jermaine O’Neal missed one). Though Suns fans were treated to a free-throw bonanza that night, the success rate was a pedestrian .763. In 1950, the Washington Capitols were 44 for 45. Before you dismiss the Heat’s feat on Tuesday, consider that free throws are far from gimmes. The Heat were led by an in-the-zone Jimmy Butler, who made 23 of 23 from the stripe. The deciding point, which came with 12 seconds left, was, of course, a Butler free throw.

His Swiss Army Knife ability was really important in a game like this.” Dedmon was not pleased that he was pulled from the game after just five minutes and got into a heated discussion with Heat coach Erik Spoelstra during that timeout. “I was kind of trying to be prepared for anything,” Cain said. But the Heat will remain without three other starters, as Tyler Herro (left Achilles soreness), Kyle Lowry (left knee discomfort) and Caleb Martin (left quadriceps strain) have been ruled out. The Heat has been outscored by 10.1 points per 100 possessions with Dedmon on the court this season. For the Heat, a league-issued suspension would have helped its position against the luxury tax. Adebayo, who missed Tuesday’s win because of a right wrist contusion, is listed as probable for Thursday’s game. That part [throwing an object onto the court] was unfortunate.
