Heat 103, Wizards 93: LeBron James scored 25 points as host Miami snapped a rare losing streak with a win over Washington.

After losing two games in a row for the first time since January, the Heat recorded 32 assists on 37 baskets and led by as many as 23 points. Chris Bosh scored 24 points and Dwyane Wade chipped in 20.

Bradley Beal hit four 3-pointers as part of his 19 total points to lead the Wizards. Washington got 15 points from Marcin Gortat in his best performance since joining the club, but still fell to 0-3 for the third straight season.

Mario Chalmers and Norris Cole both hit 3-pointers during a 10-0 run late in the third quarter that left the hosts with a commanding 82-59 advantage. The Wizards, who shot 4-for-22 in the third, made a push to get within 10 points before Bosh had five straight Miami points and James scored inside to rebuild the lead to 16 with under five minutes left, enough to withstand another Washington push in the final two minutes.

The Wizards took an early 9-2 lead on a Beal 3-pointer before Miami scored the game's next nine points and never trailed again. James had a dunk during an 18-5 burst in the second quarter that led to a 61-48 halftime advantage.
