The Miami Heat had their second consecutive fourth-quarter comeback, rallying from 10 down to defeat the Orlando Magic 107-103 in overtime. 

Here are some major takeaways from the game:

-Tyler Herro finished with a game-high 23 points on but struggled again at the 3-point line. For the season, he is shooting 36 percent, the second-worst of his career.

-Gabe Vincent finished with 20 points in his fourth start in place of Kyle Lowry.  In the 23 starts, he's averaged 10 points. With Lowry struggling this season and on the injured list, the Heat might want to consider a change.

-The Heat bounced back from a slow start. Jimmy Butler was the only player to reach double-figures in the first half.

-The Heat shot under 35 percent for a fourth straight time. The poor shooting remains a concern. 

-The Heat struggled again against a non-playoff contender. They claim these experiences are helping them get ready for the postseason but the Heat need to improve on putting teams away.
