On the Kings podcast with Jeremiah:

#1 The Miami Heat were looking for a little payback Wednesday night after losing to the Kings last Saturday night in Sacramento 119-113 which they got with a 110-107 win over the Kings in Miami.

#2 The Kings played without their superstar De’Aaron Fox who is their offensive leader. There is good news in regards to the knee injury he suffered Monday night against the Hornets. The MRI that he underwent showed a bone bruise but no other structural damage. He missed Thursday’s game and there is no other update as to his return.

#3 It was a heart breaking loss for the Kings who fought so hard through the entire game. This game could not have been any closer. The absence of Fox really hurt but the Kings had a great game from Domantas Sabonis and Kevin Huerter both finishing with 22 points and Malik Monk had 19 points off the bench.

#4 Jeremiah, Kings head coach Mike Brown disputed a basket scored by the Heat’s guard Tyler Herro claiming he traveled with the ball. Herro’s basket turned out to be the winning bucket upon review the NBA did admit that Herro travelled and was never called for it.

#5 The Kings will try again as they face the Orlando Magic (2-7) to conclude this three game road trip on Saturday afternoon at 2:00pm PDT in Orlando. The Magic have lost two of their last three games.
