The Miami Heat extended their winning streak to six with a 124-103 win against the Boston Celtics at TD Garden.

Wednesday's nine-game slate delivered several eye-opening results, like the Miami Heat staying hot in their 21-point throttling of the Boston Celtics, the Victor Wembanyama-less, De'Aaron Fox-less San Antonio Spurs taking down the (admittedly also shorthanded) Denver Nuggets and the Washington Wizards tripping up the Sacramento Kings.

The Heat escaped each of its first two trips to the NBA’s play-in tournament with the East’s No. 8 playoff seed, making an improbable run that ended with a loss to the Denver Nuggets in the NBA Finals in 2023 and then being eliminated by the top-seeded Boston Celtics in the first round of the playoffs last season.

The Miami Heat delivered a commanding performance on Wednesday night, defeating the Boston Celtics 124-103 at TD Garden.

A four-game losing streak has the Memphis Grizzlies in must-win mode with six games remaining this season. The Grizzlies have fallen to the No. 8 spot in the Western Conference standings after losing seven of their past eight games. A road game against the Miami Heat is the next chance to end that stretch on Thursday night (6:30 p.m., TNT).

At the end of the first quarter, the Miami Heat had a 29-22 lead over the Boston Celtics. Luke Kornet scored 10 points on 5-for-6 shooting for the Celtics, while Tyler Herro had eight points (3-for-4 shooting) for the Heat.

The Miami Heat looked like a broken team after the trade deadline, dropping ten straight games after dealing away Jimmy Butler to the Golden State Warriors. Slowly but surely, Erik Spoelstra has managed to put fit some of his new pieces together in the wake of the blockbuster deal that gave him four new player additions.

Here's how Zach Edey fared in his 62nd NBA game for the Memphis Grizzlies on Thursday night against the Miami Heat.
