Heat's Tyler Johnson beats Kings with game-saving block, 3-point play

Miami Heat/Vine

Having entered Sacramento without Hassan Whiteside (and Justise Winslow) to face a Kings team in the thick of the Western Conference playoff race, not much was expected from the 10-win Miami Heat on Wednesday.

Enter Tyler Johnson.

With the game tied in the final minute, Miami's third-year swingman chased down Darren Collison for an incredible fast-break block, before converting a circus and-1 on the other end as part of a personal 5-0 run to finish the game.

Johnson finished with a game-high 23 points on 7-of-11 shooting to go with six rebounds, two assists, two blocks, and a steal.
