Heat vs Kings ATS Pick: Heat +6 ½ (-110)
Both teams have a few things going against them in this matchup, and while the Kings should ultimately come out on top, the Heat should do enough to keep it tight until the end.
Miami is without Jimmy Butler and Nikola Jovic due to suspension while Tyler Herro is questionable as well. Meanwhile Sacramento is playing on its second night of a back-to-back, which should see them more worn down.
The Kings have been playing strong offense, averaging 118 points in their last five, but after playing a tough game against the Clippers in their last outing and now running into another solid Miami defense, they’ll have another long game ahead of them. The Heat have been playing good defense recently, holding teams to 102 points a game in their last five. That should show up yet again, regardless of who is playing for them.
Sacramento has also had some strong defensive performances lately, limiting the Clippers and Nuggets to 107 and 98 points, respectively. The Kings’ defense and teams’ strength at home should be enough to hold off a depleted Miami team, but not enough to cover the spread.

Heat vs Kings Player Prop Pick: De’Aaron Fox Over 24.5 Points (-110)
Fox leads the Kings with 26.9 points a game, and he has gotten hot once again in the last few games. Fox has averaged 25.8 points in February and he has scored at least 25 points in all of his last four games, averaging 32.8 points in that time.
Though Fox managed just 13 points in his first game against Miami, he should be stronger this time around. The Heat will be without a number of players while he has been strong at home, averaging 26 points as well. In a game that should be close, the Kings will need one of their best players to step up to help get it done, and Fox should be expected to do so.
