C Bam Adebayo finished with 26 points and 15 boards, helping the Heat dominate the glass 64-34.

Pass here and bet the spread and\/or Over\/Under instead.<\/p>\n BET HEAT +4.5 (-110).<\/p>\n Miami has covered the spread in all of its last 3 matchups against Phoenix and is 3-1 ATS in the last 4 meetings in Phoenix. The Heat are also 26-19-1 ATS this season.<\/p>\n Phoenix has shifted its identity to the defensive side of the ball, but Booker is typically its only consistent source of offense. With him — and potentially Green — both out, the Suns could struggle to generate offense for long stretches.<\/p>\n BET UNDER 226.5 (-110).<\/p>\n The Under has hit in 7 of Phoenix\u2019s last 10 games overall and in all 3 of its most recent road games. The Under is also 26-19 for the Suns this season. Finally, the Under has cashed in 2 of the last 3 matchups between these teams in Phoenix.<\/p>\n With so many key injuries on both sides, it\u2019s difficult to see either team having enough offensive firepower to seriously threaten the Over. Additionally, both squads rank top-8 in defensive rating, making a shootout even less likely.<\/p>\n For more sports betting picks and tips, check out SportsbookWire.com<\/a> and BetFTW<\/a>.<\/p>\n Follow SportsbookWire on Twitter\/X<\/a> and like us on Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n Access more NBA coverage:<\/p>\n HoopsHype<\/a> | Celtics Wire<\/a> | Nets Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Rockets Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Sixers Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Thunder Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Warriors Wire<\/a>\u00a0| LeBron Wire<\/a> |\u00a0Rookie Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0List Wire<\/a><\/p>\n Our team of savvy editors independently handpicks all recommendations.
