It’s Prize Picks time! Keegan Murray dunk is off the board, so I had to get creative. Luka Doncic is questionable, which complicates matters. Here is the link to join the fun, use the password KINGSBEAT: prizepicks.onelink.me/ivHR/KINGSBEAT Send me your picks! pic.twitter.com/1nlzY7gaAU7:15 PM

Draymond Green “is ready” to return to the Warriors starting lineup, per Steve Kerr, but Kerr didn’t want to officially reveal his starters pregame. Draymond played 31 minutes against the Kings. Kerr said he’s ready to play 30+ nightly again. – 6:48 PM

Some major struggles for the Heat’s halfcourt offense again as they pick up their 6th straight loss.
They outscored the Knicks 28-10 in fast-break points and still lost by 16. Their next 5 games:
vs PHX (1/29)
vs SAC (1/31)
@ WSH (2/2)
vs LAC (2/4)
vs ORL (2/6) pic.twitter.com/yqVGE92mUc5:48 PM
