""Perfect," Jaquez Jr. said."
""I'm just embracing the unknown, embracing the confidence guys are gaining in what we're doing," Spoelstra said. "It always helps when you get some W's out of it, but guys understand our identity to defend and now can create some things for us offensively. Guys are growing right before our eyes.""

Miami secured a 140-138 overtime victory after running a last-second play called "CQ," designed by assistant coach Chris Quinn. Erik Spoelstra called the play, with Norman Powell creating a distraction, Davion Mitchell setting a screen, Jaime Jaquez Jr. stationed in the corner, Nikola Jovic throwing a lob inbound pass, and Andrew Wiggins finishing with a dunk. The Cavaliers attempted 120 shots and 65 three-pointers — franchise and season-high marks against Miami — but still lost. Earlier that night Desmond Bane hit a game-winning 3 for Orlando. Spoelstra said the team is embracing the unknown and growing offensively while maintaining a defensive identity.
