NBA: Miami 95, Washington 94

WASHINGTON, Dec. 18 (UPI) -- Dwyane Wade hit two free throws with 7.9 seconds left Saturday, sending Miami to its 12th straight win, a 95-94 decision over Washington.

Wade made up at the foul line for what he couldn't do from the field where he was 0-for-6 in the fourth quarter.

Wade finished with 20 points while LeBron James led the Heat with 32 points, seven rebounds and six assists. Chris Bosh scored 20 for Miami, including 12 in the final period. He also had nine rebounds but hurt the Head with seven of their 17 turnovers.

The Wizards, who earlier in the day traded away three-time all-star guard Gilbert Arenas to Orlando for forward Rashard Lewis, got a game-high 30 points from Nick Young, who also hauled in 12 rebounds.

Washington had its own problems protecting the ball, committing seven turnovers in the final quarter.
