Chalmers' 3-point barrage lifts Heat
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 14 - 01 - 2013

SACRAMENTO, California — Mario Chalmers tied a Miami club record with 10 three-pointers Saturday in the Heat's 128-99 NBA rout of the Sacramento Kings.
Chalmers, whose 34 points were a career-high, connected on 10 of his 13 long-range attempts to tie the mark set by Brian Shaw on April 8, 1993.
LeBron James added 20 points, seven assists and five rebounds for reigning NBA champions Miami, who had lost their previous two games.
Isaiah Thomas finished with a career-best 34 points and five assists for the Kings, who have lost four straight games amid reports that the team could be sold to a group that would relocate them to Seattle.
Miami led by at least 18 points and by as many as 38 during the third quarter and took a 103-72 lead into the fourth period.
Chalmers was the only Miami starter to remain in the game in the final frame, making two more three-pointers to tie Shaw's franchise record. He said he asked coach Erik Spoelstra to give him the chance.
Magic 104, Clippers 101: J.J. Redick gave Orlando its first lead on a 3-pointer with 42 seconds left, Arron Afflalo tied his season high with 30 points, and the Magic snapped a 10-game skid.
The loss ended the Clippers' franchise-record 13-game, home-winning streak and provided them with a scare when All-Star guard Chris Paul went down holding his right knee with 54 seconds to go. Paul returned after a timeout and hit a 15-footer to draw his team within one with 33 seconds left.
But the Clippers turned the ball over on Jamal Crawford's offensive foul. Josh McRoberts found Nikola Vucevic open under the basket, and Vucevic dunked to extend Orlando's lead to 104-101 with 8 seconds left.
After a timeout, Crawford missed a 3-pointer as time expired.
Redick had 21 points for the injury-riddled Magic, who ended the franchise's longest skid since 2003-04.
Blake Griffin tied his season high with 30 points for the Clippers.
Wizards 93, Hawks 83: John Wall gave his teammates a lift with 14 points and four assists in his first game of the season, and the worst-in-NBA Wizards have their first winning streak.
Wall's playing time will be limited as he returns from a knee injury, but he appeared to have his old speed and explosiveness back while playing seven minutes in the first half and 15 in the second half.
No. 3 overall pick Bradley Beal, getting to play with Wall for the first time, scored 16 points for the Wizards, who are 6-28 but have strung together two wins in a row following their upset of Oklahoma City on Monday.
Jeff Teague scored 19 points, Al Horford had 16 points and 12 rebounds, and Josh Smith added 11 points for the Hawks, who have lost five of six.
In other games it was: Mavericks 104, Grizzlies 83; 76ers 107, Rockets 100; Suns 97, Bulls 81; Jazz 90, Pistons 87; Pacers 96, Bobcats 88. — AP
