Kelly Olynyk Comes Up Big In Fourth Quarter
7 years agoMiami Heat forward/center Kelly Olynyk helped lead a fourth quarter comeback against the Philadelphia 76ers Friday night, but came up short. Olynyk scored 12 of his team-high 19 points in the fourth quarter while also contributing six rebounds and two three-pointers in 25 minutes. Center Hassan Whiteside left the game early with an illness while forward James Johnson was benched for most of the game due to poor play, which allowed Olynyk to get extra run off the bench. Miami has to turn around and play the Detroit Pistons Saturday night, so if Whiteside is unable to go, Olynyk will likely see another boost in minutes off the bench.
