These are two teams that know each other very well in the most popular basketball league on the planet, so it is always expected that Heat vs Cavaliers will provide a show of high level in this new NBA regular season, the 2022-23.
Cleveland has no half measures. They have won 8 consecutive victories and, without any kind of transition, they have now lost 5 games in a row. That’s how things are for them during this season. For its part, Miami alternates good and bad performances, but its position in the Eastern Conference leaves much to be desired. To make matters worse, there are plenty of injured players in their squad.
At JefeBet we show you our prediction for this Miami Heat vs Cleveland Cavaliers game, as well as the best information for you to be aware of everything that will happen in the NBA season 2022-23.

Betting on the Miami Heat
- Regular season record: 7-9
- Spread: +8.5
- Moneyline: +295
- Over/Under: 213.5 (Over: -105 / Under: -115)
The good news for the Heat is that they could get a starter player back. The bad news is that the Miami team added a key player to the list of injured players. Center Bam Adebayo is in doubt after missing his first game of the season in Wednesday’s 112-104 loss to the Raptors in Toronto with a left knee contusion.
But Caleb Martin, who has missed just one game this season due to a suspension, was added to the injured list with right knee tendinitis. Tyler Herro has already been ruled out with a sprained left ankle, making it the seventh consecutive game the young point guard has missed.
Betting on the Cleveland Cavaliers
- Regular season record: 8-6
- Spread: -8.5
- Moneyline: -360
- Over/Under: 213.5 (Over: -105 / Under: -115)
In the last month, the team has shown signs of progress, winning eight of its first nine games and briefly reaching second place in the Eastern Conference standings.
After being the 20th-ranked offensive of last season, the team has gained the scoring balance needed with the arrival of Donovan Mitchell to go along with a superb defense. And young stars like Mitchell’s backcourt partner Darius Garland and Evan Mobley have the Cavs believing the current squad can be a contender for years to come.
Despite the subsequent bad streak, great things are expected from this team, which will surely be one of the great entertainers of the Eastern Conference.
JefeBet Prediction
Cleveland maintains a remarkable level despite some losses that tarnished its excellent start. That is why at JefeBet we believe that they will return to winning ways with a resounding victory over Miami.
Prediction: Cavaliers win by 13 points.
