Miami Heat vs Sacramento Kings Prediction
The Kings are at home with the rest advantage, and they’ve played their best ball over the last week and a half. The problem is the Kings are 18-24-1 ATS on the season and 9-14 SU at home. The Kings just aren’t a team I’m looking to back most nights. The Heat have cooled off a lot over the last month, but they’ve still shown what they’re capable of on hot nights. This is a game they can’t blow if they’re serious about staying out of the play-in tournament. We’re only laying a bucket. Give me the Heat.
