DeMar DeRozan saves Kings in double OT vs. Heat
DeMar DeRozan poured in nine of his game-high 30 points in the second overtime on Monday night, helping the Sacramento Kings outlast the visiting Miami Heat 123-118 for a fifth straight win under interim coach Doug Christie. After missed shots and free throws dominated the final seconds of regulation and the first overtime, the teams were still tied -- at 117-all -- in the second extra session before DeRozan hit three shots, the third an 18-footer that opened up a five-point lead with just 12.8 seconds to play. Domantas Sabonis put up a triple-double for the Kings with 21 points, a game-high 18 rebounds and a game-high 11 assists to go along with three blocks.
