Revenge is a dish best served cold.
Dion Waiters was triumphant in his return to Cleveland on Monday, sticking a pin in the Cavaliers' comeback hopes by banking in a 30-foot three to secure the unlikely win for the visiting Miami Heat.
Cleveland trimmed a 20 point-deficit down to five with less a minute to go, but LeBron James settled for a long three that drew front iron. That set up Waiters, the former No. 4 pick of the Cavaliers, for the response.
Waiters had a team-high 29 points in Miami's 106-98 win.
