(The Sports Xchange) – Dion Waiters hit a 3-pointer from the top of the key in the final second, giving the lowly but suddenly hot Miami Heat a 105-102 upset of the NBA’s best team, Golden State Warriors, on Monday night at AmericanAirlines Arena.
Waiters matched his career high with 33 points for the second consecutive game. Golden State’s Kevin Durant tied the score with 11.7 seconds left on a baseline dunk, setting the stage for Waiters’ heroics with six-10ths of a second left.
The Warriors (38-7) had their seven-game win streak snapped. It was only Golden State’s fifth loss in regulation this season. The Heat (15-30) have a season-best four-game win streak, as they completed a 4-0 homestand.
