MIAMI -- The Clippers followed up their disappointing loss in New Orleans with a complete, 119-104 win against the Miami Heat behind Bogdan Bogdanovic's best game as a Clipper. 

Bogdanovic finished with 30 points and 10 rebounds on 11-16 shooting, with some clutch shooting down the stretch.

Ivica Zubac had another monster game and outplayed his counterpart in Bam Adebayo, with 26 points and 14 rebounds.

James Harden, on the second night of a back-to-back, played 38 more minutes and tallied 24 points, 11 assists and 8 rebounds. 

While the efficiency of his offense has not been elite, Harden' ability to draw fouls, hit timely threes and facilitate the offense has been paramount. 

Although Tyler Herro did have 31 points and Andrew Wiggins had 22 of his own, Bam Adebayo only had 6 points and was a -14 in the plus/minus category. 

The Clippers played a focused, controlled and smart game of basketball in the second half, which is something that they could not do against the Pelicans a night before.

Ty Lue was once again out for the game, but Brian Shaw did well in his absence, calling a few late timeouts and using the right players the right amount of minutes. 

Jordan Miller played low minutes due to the absences of Kawhi Leonard, Norman Powell and Ben Simmons, and he scored a bucket in his return to Miami. 

Miller was a part of the final four team just a few years back.

The Clippers will get a much needed day off and travel to Atlanta to take on a feisty Hawks team. 

Kawhi's first game of the season came against the Hawks in the beginning of January, where the Clippers blew them out at Intuit Dome.

Now, the Clippers look to end their road trip with a winning record as they face the Atlanta Hawks before heading home. Tipoff in Atlanta is set for 4:30 p.m. PT on Friday.
