Miami Heat vs Philadelphia 76ers Final Score & Over/Under Result — Nov 23, 2025

Miami's opening salvo in South Philadelphia proved decisive. The Heat erupted for 37 points in the first quarter while holding the 76ers to 27, establishing a margin that Philadelphia never fully erased despite a stronger second frame. The combined 64 points in Q1 set an aggressive pace, but the teams then pushed even higher in Q2, combining for 74 points—the game's highest-scoring quarter. At halftime, Miami led 71–67, having scored 138 combined points through two quarters. The second half told a different story: both offenses cooled considerably, combining for only 106 points across the final 24 minutes. Q3 saw just 54 combined points, and Q4 dropped to 52, allowing Miami to preserve its edge and eventually win 127–117.

Norman Powell led the Heat with 32 points, while Kel'el Ware added 20 points and 16 rebounds to anchor Miami's attack. Jaime Jaquez Jr. chipped in 22 points and 7 assists. For Philadelphia, Tyrese Maxey scored 27 points with 6 assists, and Trendon Watford recorded 19 points and 9 rebounds, but it proved insufficient against Miami's opening-half dominance.

The final combined total of 244 landed below the market total, as the second-half scoring drought kept the game well short of expectations. Miami's recent form—averaging 125.0 points over its last ten games—suggested offensive firepower, and the Heat's Q1–Q2 execution validated that trend before both teams hit a wall.
