Miami has won eight of their previous ten games and is at 32-25.
Despite having fewer players than usual because of injuries and suspensions, the Miami Heat had a fantastic night on the road as they defeated the Sacramento Kings on Monday. After the game, Jaime Jaquez Jr., Bam Adebayo, and head coach Erik Spoelstra discussed the incredible victory and said it did not matter in the end since they had enough to get by.
Some may have predicted a loss going into this game due to the absence of notable players like Jimmy Butler, Tyler Herro, Terry Rozier, Nikola Jovic, and others. But counting out big players on a Spoelstra-coached Heat team is a surefire way to end up in trouble, and this team’s mentality is aptly summed up by the saying “We have enough.”
Miami employed their thirty-first different starting lineup in the victory over the Kings, but Spoelstra never wavered in his confidence in his team. Ira Winderman of The Sun Sentinel reports that the head coach of The Heat stated that his team members “love competition and love these kinds of scenarios.”
Spoelstra remarked, “We have guys that love these kinds of scenarios and competition.” “Look, don’t undersell these guys at all; they are our rotation men. Our guys are able to overcome their competitive edge by becoming desperate in their quest for victory. In the end, that’s what happened.
