Bane was assessed a Flagrant 2 foul for the play and ejected.
Bane had 11 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists prior to his ejection.
Love was signed by the Heat after being bought out of his contract with Cleveland last month. He’s still trying to find his way with his new team, but the Heat have gone 4-2 in their last six games, showing some encouraging signs.
