NBA Playoffs: Heat One Win Away From Finals

 At the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex, Bay Lake, Florida:


Tyler Herro came off the bench on Wednesday to score 37 points as the Miami Heat defeated the Boston Celtics 112-109 in game three of the NBA's Eastern Conference Finals.


Jimmy Butler added 24 points (to go with his nine rebounds), Goran Dragic 22, and Bam Adebayo 20 (to go with his 12 rebounds) all contributed to the Heat's cause.


Jayson Tatum scored 28 points and Jaylen Brown scored 21 (with each grabbing nine boards) to pace the Celtics while Kemba Walker added 20 of his own.


Miami, now up three games to one, can close out the Celtics and advance to the NBA Finals with a game-five victory on Friday (5:30 PM Pacific Time, ESPN).
