Wade’s 43 lift Heat past Suns

PHOENIX, Arizona—Dwayne Wade scored a season-high 43 points as the Miami Heat beat the Phoenix Suns 107-92 Friday night in the first matchup between the teams since the Shaquille O’Neal for Shawn Marion trade last February.

Neither O’Neal nor Marion was much of a factor in the game dominated by the unstoppable Wade. O’Neal scored 12 points in 28 minutes for the Suns and Marion had 10 for Miami.

Leandro Barbosa, playing on his 26th birthday, led the Suns with 20 points. Raja Bell had 16 and Amare Stoudemire 14 for Phoenix, which played without the injured Steve Nash.

At Cleveland, LeBron James scored 23 points, Zydrunas Ilgauskas added a season-high 21, and Cleveland matched the best home start in franchise history by beating Golden State.

Cleveland (13-3) has won 12 of 13 and is a league-best 9-0 at home, equaling its top home start, first set in 1976-77 and repeated in 1991-92.

The Warriors (5-11) have lost five straight, including the first four on their current road trip. Golden State is 2-7 away from home and ends its trip in New York on Saturday night.

At Auburn Hills, Michigan, Allen Iverson scored 17 points in his first game as a reserve this season, leading Detroit over Milwaukee.

Iverson was benched by Pistons coach Michael Curry to begin the game, punishment for missing a mandatory team practice on Thanksgiving. He apologized Friday morning, then sat on the bench for almost 10 minutes as Rodney Stuckey started instead.

NBA RESULTS: Toronto 93, Atlanta 88; Boston 102, Philadelphia 78; Cleveland 112, Golden State 97; Detroit 107, Milwaukee 97; Charlotte 115, Indiana 108 (OT); Minnesota 105, Oklahoma Thunder 103; Miami 107, Phoenix 92; San Antonio 109, Memphis 98; Utah 120, Sacramento 94; Portland 101, New Orleans 86; LA Lakers 114, Dallas 107.
