Dragic's triple-double lifts Heat back into playoff spot:
Dragic outdueled Luka Doncic in the first head-to-head meeting between the only two Slovenians currently in the NBA, and Miami moved past Orlando for the final playoff spot in the East race.
Dion Waiters scored 17 points for the Heat, who improved to just 4-29 in games where they trailed entering the fourth quarter. Dallas led 82-75 going into the final period, but the Heat outscored the Mavericks 30-17 in the last 12 minutes. As many as 2,000 Slovenians were expected at the game — countless Slovenia jerseys were spotted in the stands, as well as plenty of fans wearing scarves bearing the country's name, all for very good reason.His only other triple-double came in 2011 — 11 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists for Houston over Minnesota in a season-finale. That was basically meaningless.
