LeBron James - F - Miami Heat
Jan. 31, 2012 - 5:00 AM ET
LeBron James nearly triple-doubled in the Heat's 109-95 win against the Hornets, scoring 22 points on 8-of-12 shooting (1-of-2 from deep, 5-of-7 from the foul line) with 11 rebounds, eight assists, and a steal in under 30 minutes before being benched the entire fourth quarter.
The Heat had the game well in hand by the time the fourth quarter started, so James and the other starters were played sparingly in the second half. Dwyane Wade scored 22 points with three rebounds, five assists, and two steals, and Chris Bosh scored 12 points with just three boards to go with two steals of his own in the win.
