The Sacramento Kings are playing the Miami Heat on Thursday night at the Golden 1 Center.

The Miami Heat was in a bit of trouble, as they are hoping to score a three-game skid after losing 120-112 hours of overtime against the Warriors last night. Bam Adebayo led the team on 24 points and seven assists, Kendrick Nunn added 19 points, while Jimmy Butler scored a triple double of 13 points with 12 rebounds and 11 assists. As a team, the heat shot 45 percent off the field and 13 of 36 off the 3-point line as they set the tone with 36 points in the first quarter and led by up to 19 points in the first half before overtaking and outperformed the rest of the way when they lost just seven points in overtime. Tyler Herro scored 11 points with 15 rebounds and four assists, but only shot three out of 15 out of the field, while Butler only shot six out of 15 out of the field.

Meanwhile, the Sacramento Kings are in a difficult position they hope to put an end to a four-game skid after falling in a 136-125 home loss to the Nets on Monday. Hassan Whiteside led the team with 26 points, 16 rebounds and five blocks from the bench, Cory Joseph added 22 points, Buddy Hield scored 21 points, while Marvin Bagley and De’Aaron Fox each scored 19 points. As a team, the Kings shot 53 percent from the field and 12 out of 33 percent from the 3-point line, which would be good enough to win most games, but they always fought an uphill battle after scoring just 20 points in the second quarter against which had scored nets that shot 57 percent for the game.

In terms of betting trends, the heat is 7-19-1 ATS against a team with a losing record in the last 27 games and a total of 3-9 ATS in the last 12 games. The Kings are 0-4 ATS in their last four home games, 4-1 ATS in their last five games against a team with a record loss and 0-4 ATS in their last four total games.

Head to head is the over 14-5 total in the last 19 meetings, 1-6 ATS in the last seven meetings, and 1-4 ATS in the last five meetings in Sacramento.

The Heat has been in a funk for the last three games, and losing overtime against the Warriors last night must have been especially daunting. The Kings were in a crisis of their own when they were just blown out by the Nets but they haven’t played since Monday so they will definitely have the fresher legs in this competition. It’s hard to bet on both teams with a lot of confidence, but the Kings are a streaky team that can beat anyone on their day and I just feel like they’re catching the heat at the right time. Give me the kings with the points at home.
