The Miami Heat (22 - 29) defeated the New York Knicks (10 - 42), 109 - 95, on Monday. Chris Bosh filled the cup on Monday night, finishing with 32 points and six assists. He also hit 4 - of - 6 from the three - point line. Hassan Whiteside has been slowed down by an ankle injury of late. While he played just 19 minutes, he had seven points, nine rebounds and two blocks. The Heat were down by 14 points in the first half, but quickly erased the deficit and eventually gained a 14 - point lead on the Knicks. After missing the team's previous game Saturday against the Warriors as part of his schedule to rest during the second game of back - to - backs, Carmelo Anthony left Monday's contest with a knee injury. He had 26 points, four assists and four rebounds in 32 minutes before his departure. R egardless, Anthony is highly unlikely to play Wednesday against the Magic and now will take it easy during the All-Star break. On Wednesday, the Knicks will head to Orlando to face the Magic, while the Heat will play the Cleveland Cavaliers at Quicken Loans Arena.
