The NBA action was off the charts last night as the Sacramento Kings pulled off a stunning victory over the Miami Heat with a score of 111-110! If you missed it, let’s break down all the drama that went down on the hardwood—it’s one of those games that will have you talking until next week!
Sabonis Seals the Deal Domantas Sabonis came in clutch for the Kings with just 0.7 seconds left in regulation. Sabonis muscled his way in and got the putback layup to fall, lifting Sacramento over the Heat in an absolute thriller. Sabonis wasn’t just a hero in that moment; he was all over the court, ending the night with 16 points, 16 rebounds, and 7 assists. Talk about a workhorse effort!
Fox Leading the Pack But let’s not forget about De’Aaron Fox, who was on another level last night. Fox led all scorers, putting up 28 points along with 6 rebounds and 5 assists, keeping the Kings offense in high gear all game long. Whether it was draining jumpers or making sure his teammates were in the right spot, Fox was the heart and soul of Sacramento’s game plan.
Miami’s Tough Battle Credit where credit’s due—Miami Heat didn’t go down without a fight. Jimmy Butler and Tyler Herro were sensational, combining for 54 points to keep Miami right there until the final seconds. Butler put up 27 points with 6 assists, and Herro knocked down 5 three-pointers on his way to his own 27-point performance. They had the Heat in it until the very end, but sometimes the ball just doesn’t bounce your way.
The Final Countdown With mere seconds left on the clock, it was all about who wanted it more—and last night, it was the Kings who proved to have that extra grit. The last-second putback from Sabonis was pure hustle, the kind of moment that shows why he’s so crucial to this squad. It’s early in the season, but the Kings are making a statement that they’re here to play, and games like this are why we love the NBA.
What’s Next? The Kings are off to a solid start, and if they keep playing like this, they might surprise a few people this year. For Miami, it’s back to the drawing board, but with Jimmy and Herro doing their thing, they’re bound to bounce back quickly.
