The Sacramento Kings were victorious yet again on Friday evening, defeating the visiting Miami Heat 105-97 and avenging their heartbreaking overtime loss in South Beach last month. The injury to Jimmy Butler coupled with trade deadline movement caused the Heat to play with a thin roster, but the Kings will take wins any way that they can get them at this point.
After an abysmal stretch around the holidays in which Sacramento lost 15 of 18 games, they have now won 5 of their last 7, including an unlikely 21-point victory over the LA Clippers on January 30th.
