MILWAUKEE, March 19 (UPI) -- Jason Williams' 21 points and 10 assists Tuesday helped the Miami Heat rally to a 112-106 road win over the Milwaukee Bucks.

Williams hit five of nine from three-point range and the Heat combined for 14 of 25 from beyond the arc as Miami ended an eight-game losing streak. The NBA-worst Heat have won just four times in their last 39 games.

Miami also go 17 points from Chris Quinn, 16 from Earl Barron and 14 from Ricky Davis, who also had 10 assists.

Michael Redd scored a game-high 27 points for Milwaukee, which has lost six in a row and nine of 10. Maurice Williams added 26 points and 11 assists, while Michael Ruffin had 14 points and 16 boards.

Miami was behind by as many as 14 points in the second half but Barron scored the first four points of the fourth quarter to pull the Heat within one. Quinn hit a three-pointer to give them the lead with 10 minutes left and by the time the Heat finished their 14-0 run they were up 82-77.
