Javonte Smart scored 13 points for Miami, while Haywood Highsmith and Kyle Allman Jr. each finished with 11. The Heat shot only 28% from the field. First-round pick Nikola Jovic scored three points on 1-for-6 shooting for Miami. The No. 27 overall pick signed his rookie contract earlier Saturday. 'We just didn't get in a good rhythm,' Jovic said. 'I think tomorrow will be a lot better.' The California Classic is one of the events preceding the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas, the one in which all 30 teams participate.
