SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- Dwyane Wade scored 23 points and the Miami Heat climbed back above .500 by beating the short-handed Utah Jazz 93-89 on Wednesday night.

The Heat closed a five-game road trip at 3-2 with their ninth win in the last 10 meetings against Utah, which was missing a large chunk of its regular lineup.

Miami (10-9) took advantage inside and outrebounded Utah 45-38 as injured forwards Carlos Boozer, Andrei Kirilenko and Matt Harpring watched from the bench in suits.

Udonis Haslem had 13 rebounds for the Heat, who held off several runs by the Jazz and went 9-of-11 from the foul line in the fourth quarter to seal it.

Paul Millsap led Utah with 20 points and 13 rebounds.
