Desmon Bane and De'Anthony Metlon scored 26 points each, while Dillon Brooks racked up 21 on the night to help the Grizzlies get to a 132-120 win over the Nets at home.

The Heat suffered yet another fourth-quarter collapse, which led to a loss against the New York Knicks. Jimmy Butler scored 30 points on 64.7 % shooting from the field. Kyle Lowry and Bam Adebayo added 17 points apiece, but in the end, their effort proved to not be enough. Youngster Immanuel Quickley took over the game in the fourth as he drained 20 points there to lead the Knicks to a 111-103 win over the Heat.
