Towns basks in Miami heat with 44 pts

Maintaining his hot streak in Miami, Towns made 17 of 25 shots from the floor, including four of five from three-point range, in 39 minutes. His previous season high since joining New York in an off-season trade with the Minnesota Timberwolves had been 21 points.

Jalen Brunson added 22 points and nine assists with just one turnover for the Knicks, and Mikal Bridges contributed 17 points and six assists.

Towns averages 25.4 points in games at Miami, his second-highest road average against any opponent behind 25.8 points in games at Indiana.

"The weather," Towns told MSG Network after the game, when asked why he likes games in Miami so much. "I was in Minnesota. It's cold. It's hot here. I like that."
