Miami Heat Odds & Injury: Can Kyle Guy Do It Again Against Former Team?

The Miami Heat stay steady along a road trip on Sunday. Playing in a game that’s at a bit of an odd time for them, to say the least, they’ll have a six o’clock tip-off in the Golden 1 Center against Sacramento.

While noon, one, two, or even three are typical Sunday starts, the six o’clock hour is a bit wanky compared to other typical start times. Seemingly happening every hour but that one as seven, eight, nine, and even 10 pm on the East Coast are pretty standard times depending on where they are playing.

Again, a wanky timeslot for a game, you have to hope it doesn’t bother their rhythm too much. With Jimmy Butler in tow, you can best bet that you’ll get a focused group ready to give maximum effort.

That goes for him, Kyle Lowry, Tyler Herro, and everyone else that’ll suit up. That’s just it though, they are still roster challenged, but at least they have the help of the infantry.

Here is an injury report and a bit of intel about the guys playing tomorrow for your Miami Heat, per Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel. 

With, count them, 11 guys out on Sunday due to a mix of injury and protocols, the Miami Heat do have enough regulars to field their starting lineup.

The Miami Heat don’t have many regular guys on Sunday against the Sacramento Kings. However and as the ‘Spoism’ goes, they certainly have enough.

That includes two all-star types in Jimmy and Kyle Lowry, but also Tyler Herro, Caleb Martin, and Omer Yurtseven, all explosive players in their very own unique ways.

It still gives the Miami Heat good odds to win this one. Speaking of though, here are the actual odds on this contest.

Total: 222.5

Even though the Miami Heat don’t have their full complement of guys going, they should still have enough to get this one done. That might include another big showing from a guy like Kyle Guy or possibly even a retro-Rio-type night from Mario Chalmers.

Guy showed up huge in his first contest with the Miami Heat in their last game against the Rockets. Scoring 17 points to go with four assists and rebounds each, he tied his career-high scoring figures.

It sure would be a nice feeling to have a big game against one of your former teams, the original team that thought you couldn’t cut it, at that. That’s the opportunity that Guy has before him on Sunday.

All in all and though the Heat aren’t their healthiest, this one shouldn’t be that tough. They do still have Jimmy Butler and Kyle Lowry, you know.
