Kawhi Leonard finished with 24 points and 12 rebounds as the San Antonio Spurs won their second straight game at home with a 94-90 victory over the Miami Heat.
Leonard on Monday had five points in a key stretch in the fourth quarter as the Spurs sent the Heat to their fifth consecutive loss in front of a crowd of 18,400.
The Spurs led 86-81 with 2:22 to play after seven consecutive points in a minute-and-a-half span by the Heat's Dion Waiters.
But Leonard hit a free throw, reserve guard Patty Mills added two more free throws, and forward LaMarcus Aldridge grabbed a key offensive rebound to power the Spurs to a rare home victory.
The Spurs have struggled at the AT&T Center this year, losing their first three home games of November.
San Antonio made five of its six free throw attempts in the final minute.
