The Miami Heat took a 123-119 overtime loss at Sacramento on Wednesday, their ninth straight defeat on the road.

They're severely banged up at the moment, with several key pieces missing. Josh Richardson missed the last game due to soreness in his left ankle and is not expected to play Friday against the Lakers. Dwyane Wade will miss the game due to a left hamstring strain and Hassan Whiteside will miss his fourth straight game with a hip injury.

The Heat are just 15-20 SU away from home on the season, and here they'll face a surging Lakers team which has won eight of its last 11 games overall and is 11-2 ATS in its last 13 home games.

My selection is an 8* play on LA Lakers.
