Heat Notes: Larsson, Wiggins, Conwell, Hardaway, Giannis

Miami Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra moved Andrew Wiggins to the bench and inserted Pelle Larsson into the starting lineup for Sunday's victory against the Sacramento Kings. Larsson scored 11 points in 22 minutes during his start, while Wiggins contributed six points as a reserve amid career-low season averages. Rookie Ryan Conwell also saw expanded minutes in the closing lineup over Tim Hardaway Jr.

Following the game, Giannis Antetokounmpo addressed recent critical comments made by his former coach Doc Rivers, emphasizing that he is focused on Miami. The Heat continue to work through early-season issues, particularly on defense, where they rank 25th in the league despite high expectations following the summer trade for Antetokounmpo.
