“The 41-year old Udonis Haslem can make a 3-pointer, but Ben Simmons can’t make one to save his life”: NBA Twitter had some hilarious reactions on the Heat OG’s dagger against the Pacers

Miami Heat veteran Udonis Haslem hits a 3-pointer to tie the franchise record of twenty-two 3-pointers. UD’s shot from beyond the arc had the home crowd and the Heat bench on their feet.

The Heat defeated the Pacers 125-96, with Tyler Herro returning to the lineup after a three-game absence due to a bruised thigh. The Heat didn’t have Jimmy Butler, PJ Tucker, and Bam Adebayo in the lineup while Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon aggravated his soreness in his right Achilles.

However, the Heat had a great night from the field, scoring twenty-two 3-pointers in the game. Coming off the bench, Herro had twenty-six points and was 5-for-8 from the 3-point line. The Erik Spoelstra team had the likes of Dewayne Dedmon, Gab Vincent, and Max Strus fill in the depleted roster.

The Heat is missing many of its crucial players due to injuries. Thus it was time for the locker room leader Udonis Haslem to step into the game. The 41-year old checked in during the fourth quarter, receiving a standing ovation from the home crowd.
