Magic's Terrence Ross scores 35 points vs. Heat, adds literally nothing else
Terrence Ross scored 35 points Wednesday night in the Orlando Magic’s 116-113 loss to the Miami Heat.
That was it. That’s the stat line.
Ross had the hot shooting hand, coming off the bench to hit 12 of his 18 shots, including 8 of 10 3-pointers. He made 3 of 5 free throws to complete the team-leading scoring total in 34:11 minutes.
But the rest of the box score line raised eyebrows. Ross did it without a single rebound, assist, steal or block — though he did have one turnover. Every other Magic player had at least one in three of the four stats.
... But... But... How? How can you play 34 minutes and not have a rebound mistakenly go your way or pass the ball to a teammate who accidentally makes a shot? God bless, Portland’s own, Terrence Ross. 💪👊 https://t.co/eFumDYZmHt
