Dixon’s Isaiah Roby starts for Thunder against Heat

Dixon native Isaiah Roby made his 10th career NBA start Monday night in Oklahoma City’s 108-94 loss at home to the Miami Heat.

Roby scored 12 points and pulled down five rebounds in 28 minutes, adding an assist and a steal. He shot 4-for-5 from the field, hitting both of his 3-point shots, and also went 2-for-2 from the free-throw line.

On Sunday, Roby came off the bench in the Thunder’s 117-101 win over the Cavaliers in Cleveland. He played 20 minutes and finished with six points, five rebounds, three assists and a blocked shot. He was 2-for-6 from the floor and 2-for-2 from the foul line; he did not shoot a 3-pointer.

Oklahoma City (12-19) is back in action Wednesday night when the San Antonio Spurs come to town.
