Jazz at Heat picks and predictionsPrediction
Heat 122, Jazz 115
PASS.
No interest here. The Heat (-325) are too expensive to consider as a massive favorite, but should win with relative ease.
BET JAZZ +8.5 (-110).
The Jazz, who were aggressive at the deadline with the acquisition of Jackson Jr., have covered in 4 straight games, closing as an underdog in 3 of those. Utah has scored enough to keep things close, tallying at least 117 points in 3 games in a row.
The Heat have been a streaky team, and their offense will likely still be short Herro, one of their top weapons. Miami has scored 118 points or fewer in 4 of its last 6 games and may struggle to separate itself by a significant margin.
Back JAZZ +8.5 (-110).
BET UNDER 242.5 (-105).
This total is just far too high to consider taking the Over. The Heat have gone 3-5 O/U across their last 8 contests and have allowed sub-120 points in 5 of those performances.
The Jazz have gone 2-3 O/U in their previous 5 games and have given up 122 points or fewer in each of those. Take UNDER 242.5 (-105).
