The Miami Heat ( 28 - 34 ) defeated the Sacramento Kings ( 21 - 40 ) 114 - 109 on Saturday at American Airlines Arena in Miami . Down 78 - 68 coming out of the third quarter , the Heat started playing with some urgency and out - scored the Kings 28 - 18 to pull it even and force an overtime battle . The overtime period went back and forth all of the way , but with the Heat up just one , Tyler Johnson hit a clutch three - pointer with just 50 seconds left in overtime , putting the Heat up by four , and the Kings were never able to make up the deficit from there on out . A big help in the Heat 's comeback was their defense , as they forced the Kings into 22 turnovers , while committing just 14 of their own . The Heat 's chances of winning looked bleak after finding out they 'd be without three starters , including Luol Deng , Goran Dragic and Hassan Whiteside . The duo of Dwyane Wade and Tyler Johnson came out and made up or the key losses though , as each notched a big game . Wade went 10 - for - 18 from the field and 1 - for - 3 from the three - point line to score a team - high of 28 points , while adding four rebounds and four assists . He 's on a very strong stretch of four games , averaging 23 points , 6 assists and 3 steals over that span . Johnson , on the other hand , finished with 24 points ( 7 - 12 FG , 3 - 5 3Pt , 7 - 10 FT ) , six rebounds and six assists of his own . The rookie is starting to make his presence known , as this was the second time he surpassed the 20 - point mark over his last four games . He 's still averaging just 7 points per game on the year . Recently acquired , Michael Beasley , also was a big factor in the victory . In 37 minutes off the bench , he recorded 18 points ( 9 - 17 FG , 0 - 2 FT ) and seven rebounds before fouling out . In just his sixth game of the year , the points were a new season - high . Despite the loss , the Kings ' starters were still quite effective , especially DeMarcus Cousins and Rudy Gay . Gay went 12 - for - 24 from the field and 3 - for - 8 from the three - point line to score 27 points , to go along with eight rebounds and five assists . While the Kings continue to lose , he 's been a force lately for this team , averaging 25 points over his last five games . Cousins , on the other hand , finished with 27 points ( 10 - 17 FG , 7 - 8 FT ) of his own , while adding 17 rebounds before fouling out . It marked his second double - double in a row , as he 's combined for 56 points and 29 rebounds over his last two games . He 's now averaging 24 points and 12 rebounds on the season . Ben McLemore had a fantastic showing with his shot . He went 7 - for - 16 from the field and 3 - for - 8 from the three - point line to score 20 points in 44 minutes . He had gone a combined 3 - for - 13 from the field over his last two games , so it was good to see him get dialed in on Saturday . The Heat 's next game will be at home against the Boston Celtics on Monday , while the Kings will travel to Atlanta to play the Hawks on Monday .
