Chris Bosh powers Miami Heat past Sacramento Kings

The Sacramento Kings remain winless on the road this season after falling to the Miami Heat 116-109 at AmericanAirlines Arena.

Eight of the Heat's opening 11 matches of the NBA season have been at home and they have won six of them following last night's victory.

Dwyane Wade was the game's leading scorer with 24 points, while Chris Bosh had 23 on 8-12 shooting to go along with 11 rebounds.

The Kings were without their main scorer DeMarcus Cousins after he was suspended in the lead-up to the match for elbowing Atlanta Hawks center Al Horford the night before, and then lost Rudy Gay to a shoulder injury in the third quarter.

Sacramento point guard Rajon Rondo had a season-high 18 assists, 14 points and nine rebounds after having three triple-doubles in his previous four games.

The Heat improve to 7-4, while the Kings are 4-9 overall and now 0-4 on the road.
