Down 16 three minutes into the second quarter, Miami outscored Toronto 33-10 the rest of the first half. Jovic scored 11 points, hitting two 3-pointers, during the surge.

The Heat outrebounded the Raptors 52-42. They also had double-digit rebound advantages in the other homestand wins over the Los Angeles Lakers, Phoenix and Cleveland.

Both teams are back in action Monday night. The Raptors host Chicago, while the Heat are at Detroit.
