Amar’e Stoudemire, Danilo Gallinari and Landry Fields formed their own “Big Three” and combined for 63 points to lead the host New York Knicks to a 93-88 victory over the Miami Heat on Thursday.
Stoudemire scored a team-best 24 points, and Gallinari and Fields made back-to-back pivotal 3-pointers as New York (24-21) sent Miami (31-14) to its fifth loss in six games.
The 3-pointers by Gallinari and Fields gave New York an 89-84 lead with 49.2 seconds left. Gallinari scored 20 points and Fields had 19 points, 13 rebounds and six assists.
Miami’s Dwyane Wade scored a game-high 34 points and grabbed a career-best 16 rebounds while wearing a pair of tinted glasses to protect his eyes from bright lights in his return from a migraine headache.
Wade was 14 of 22 from the field, but missed all seven of his fourth-quarter shots.
LeBron James had 24 points and 11 rebounds for the Heat, but was 7 of 24 from the field. James scored on back-to-back layups to make it a one-point game before New York’s Raymond Felton hit four straight free throws to seal the victory.
Miami’s James Jones scored 15 points on five 3-point baskets.
The Heat played without forward Chris Bosh, who remained in Miami because of a sprained ankle.
