MIAMI, Jan. 24 (UPI) -- Chris Bosh hit a key 3-pointer down the stretch en route to 35 points Tuesday and the Miami Heat hung on for a 92-85 victory over Cleveland.

Bosh's trey from the corner was part of his run of 17 points in the fourth quarter for Miami, which finished out a five-game homestand 4-1.

LeBron James scored 18 points for the Heat, which won for the seventh time in eight games without all-star guard Dwyane Wade on the floor. Wade is out due to a sprained ankle.

Rookie Kyrie Irving led the Cavaliers with 17 points while Samardo Samuels added 15 off the bench for Cleveland.
