VIDEO: Bosh gets a friendly bounce, makes circus and-1

Robert Mayer / USA TODAY Sports

If the preseason is any indication, Chris Bosh is quickly adapting to his new role as the Miami Heat's No. 1 option.

Bosh has scored 20-plus points in three straight games and is averaging 18.5 points on 48 percent shooting through six exhibition contests, despite logging less than 30 minutes per game.

As any successful athlete will tell you, though, sometimes you have to be a bit lucky to be good, and on Tuesday against the Houston Rockets, Bosh got quite the friendly bounce.

He finished with 22 points on 7-of-12 shooting in Miami's 90-85 victory over the Rockets, adding six rebounds, three assists, a block and a couple of three-pointers.
