MIAMI 116, ORLANDO 113

It took a record-setting night from three-point range for the Miami Heat to beat the Orlando Magic.

Duncan Robinson scored 27 points, all of them coming from beyond the arc, and the host Heat hit a franchise-record 22 three-pointers in their 116-113 win Wednesday.

Goran Dragic scored 25 points and added nine assists and Kelly Olynyk added 16.

The previous record for Heat three-pointers was 21, set April 5, 2017, at Charlotte. The 22 threes made also tied the most allowed in a game by Orlando.

“My teammates encouraged me to shoot. The coaching staff encourages me to shoot,” Robinson said. “So I just went out and tried to be aggressive.”
