Tipoff: 4:30 p.m.
Where: American Airlines Arena.
TV/Radio: News 10; KHTK (1140 AM).
Head to head: The Heat has not been kind to the Kings no matter the locale, winning the last seven meetings overall and falling just three times in 19 matchups in Miami. This is the teams' first meeting of the season.
Heat update: The one-sided ways would seem ready to change, as Miami has gone from winning a title in 2006 to falling so fast, rebuilding came quickly. Although the Heat was able to unload an aging Shaquille O'Neal on Phoenix in an early February trade that brought Shawn Marion, nothing has changed yet, as Miami has lost all seven games since.
Heat injuries: C Alonzo Mourning (torn right patella tendon and torn right quadriceps, out); C Joel Anthony (right quadriceps strain, out).
Kings injuries: PG Tyronn Lue (left calf strain, day-to-day); PF Shareef Abdur-Rahim (right knee surgery, out).
