Erik Spoelstra returned to the Miami Heat ahead of their game against the Sacramento Kings on Monday. 

Head coach Spoelstra missed Saturday's 110-95 loss to the Brooklyn Nets for personal reasons, with assistant coach Chris Quinn filling in. 

However, Miami confirmed that the 60-year-old was back with the team for the meeting with the Kings at FTX Arena. 

Ahead of Monday's game, the Heat (47-28) had the second-best record in the Eastern Conference but sat below the Boston Celtics. The Milwaukee Bucks and the Philadelphia 76ers were half a game back in a tight top four. 

#SACvsMIA INJURY UPDATE: Gabe Vincent (toe), Tyler Herro (knee), and P.J. Tucker (knee) will all warm up with the hope of playing in tonight’s game vs the Kings. Caleb Martin (Achilles) has been ruled out.

Coach Spo has returned to the team after missing Saturday’s game.
