Miami defeated Dallas 106–102 on November 24 at Kaseya Center in a defensive struggle that finished well below the 240.5-point Vegas total. Tyler Herro led the Heat with 24 points while Kel Ware added 20, anchoring Miami's balanced offensive approach despite a modest 44.7 percent field-goal clip. Dallas countered with P. Washington's team-leading 27 points, but the Mavericks' 39.2 percent shooting and 16 turnovers proved costly in the close contest. Miami's defense clamped down in the second quarter, outscoring Dallas 32–25 to build crucial separation, and the Heat's 97.1 defensive rating held firm despite the Mavericks launching 12 three-pointers. Both teams grabbed 22 assists and recorded 8 steals, but Dallas's turnover disadvantage and lower offensive rating (97.1 to Miami's 102.4) ultimately decided the outcome. The Heat's fourth-quarter execution—26 points on steadier efficiency—sealed the win as Dallas's 30-point final frame came too late. Miami's defensive identity remains intact heading into the stretch.
