PHOENIX, Arizona (AFP) — Dwyane Wade rebounded from his worst showing of the season with a sparkling 43-point performance Friday as his Miami Heat downed the depleted Phoenix Suns 107-92.

The Suns were without two-time National Basketball Association Most Valuable Player Steve Nash, who sat out with a right thigh contusion.

Without Nash to worry about on the defensive end, Wade was able to concentrate on his offensive game.

Wade, who scored a season-low 12 points in an embarrassing 106-68 loss at Portland on Wednesday, hit 15-of-24 from the floor.
