LOS ANGELES, Nov. 15 (UPI) -- Jamal Crawford helped break the game open in the third period Wednesday, pushing the Los Angeles Clippers to a 107-101 win over Miami.

Los Angeles outscored the Heat 13-4 over the final 3:45 of the third quarter, took an 11-point lead into the final 12 minutes and increased the advantage to 20 inside the 6-minute mark.

Miami fell to 2-2 on its six-game road trip, which will conclude with stops in Denver and Phoenix.
