Heat 97, Suns 88: Chris Bosh scored 24 points on 9-of-11 shooting and grabbed nine rebounds to help Miami hold off host Phoenix and complete a 4-2 road trip.

LeBron James played despite having the flu and scored 21 points to set a franchise record with 11 consecutive games of 20 or more points to start a season. That breaks the mark previously held by Dwyane Wade, who missed his second straight game due to a foot ailment.

Markieff Morris scored 16 points while Michael Beasley and Shannon Brown added 14 apiece for the Suns, who didn’t score over the final two-plus minutes of the contest.

Phoenix led by nine points with under five minutes left in the first quarter before Miami rallied for a 52-52 halftime tie. The Heat led 70-67 entering the final stanza.
