The Sacramento Kings just beat the Heat a few days ago, getting whatever they wanted offensively, and they’ve now won 6 of the last 10 meetings against them. While the better team on paper, the Miami Heat have been shaky at both ends of the floor through 8 games. There’s also a possible letdown spot after the Heat beat the Warriors last night. Don’t love this spot, but I’ll grab the points with the Kings if forced to pick.
