Betting on the Miami Heat
- Season Record: 23-20
After Kyle Lowry’s injury, Miami started to win and since then they have achieved 6-1 record. They surprisingly play better without their star player and in their last game, the Miami Heat defeated the Bucks by a score of 108-102 to achieve 17-19 record, which is unusual considering he is one of the best players of the team.
During that match, Gave Vincent had a great performance, scoring 28 points and assisting on six occasions, while on the boards Bam Adebayo and Jimmy Butler were also brilliant.
This match is important because they are still 3 games ahead of the Hawks and by winning they would get away from a direct rival and put pressure on the Knicks, who are currently in sixth place in the East, qualifying directly to the playoffs.
Betting on the Atlanta Hawks
- Season Record: 20-22
The Atlanta Hawks are still in the Play-In, but their margin of error is already minimal, as they are only one game ahead of the Bulls and Raptors. A loss could take them out of this zone, and they would have to start all over again.
There are rumors about the possible arrival of Kyle Korver as assistant manager, and that is affecting the team. However, those rumors could not stop a win against Indiana by a score of 113-111.
Trae Young achieved a double-double of 26 points and 11 assist, being quite influential in the team’s game, as is De’Andre Hunter, who scored 25 points and was very participative.
JefeBet Prediction
The Heat’s last visit to Atlanta was a positive one for Miami, as they won 106-98. For this reason, we believe that the Heat will take the second game of this series and beat the Hawks at home again.
Prediction: Miami Heat Moneyline
