Tom Oldfield<\/a> 22+ years betting experience<\/p>\n \n Updated: \u2022 4 min read<\/p>\n Bam Adebayo probably won’t come close to 83 points again tonight, but he’ll play his part on defense in a Heat rout of the Bucks, per our NBA betting picks.<\/p>\n Photo By – Reuters Connect. Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (13) reacts after becoming the NBA’s second-highest scorer of points in a game.<\/p>\n Bam Adebayo and the red-hot Miami Heat are this week\u2019s biggest NBA story, and they\u2019ll go for a seventh straight win tonight as they host the Milwaukee Bucks.<\/p>\n Bam lit up the Wizards on Tuesday in a stunning 83-point outburst, and my Bucks vs. Heat predictions signal more home cooking for this dangerous Miami squad.<\/p>\n This March 12 clash is the last thing a struggling Milwaukee team needs, and my NBA picks<\/a> break down the action.<\/p>\n Bucks vs Heat prediction<\/p>\n Bucks vs Heat best bet: Heat -6.5 (-110)<\/p>\n Here come the Miami Heat<\/a>.<\/p>\n Erik Spoelstra\u2019s men enter with a 22-11 record at Kaseya Center, and they\u2019re 8-2 ATS in their last 10 overall.<\/p>\n Despite key absences, Miami has scored 120+ points in five straight contests, and this spread feels even better with Kel\u2019el Ware \u2014 and possibly Tyler Herro \u2014 returning here. <\/p>\n But this pick is equally about the Milwaukee Bucks<\/a>‘ woes. They are 3-7 ATS in their past 10 and 12-19 SU on the road.<\/p>\n There\u2019s only so much that Giannis Antetokounmpo<\/a> can do to elevate a roster with major holes.<\/p>\n Enjoying Covers content? Add us as a preferred source on your Google account Even after Bam Adebayo<\/a>\u2019s historic scoring effort this week, defense remains his calling card. He averaged 10.1 RPG in March, and the Heat will need his hustle on the glass tonight to combat the Bucks\u2019 size.<\/p>\n I\u2019ll round out my SGP with a wager on Davion Mitchell<\/a>, who\u2019s been a great story in South Beach this year. His steady guard play has translated to 6.7 APG, and he\u2019s dished a combined 17 dimes in two matchups against Milwaukee this season.<\/p>\n Bucks vs Heat SGP<\/p>\n Heat -6.5 Our “from downtown” SGP: Bam and the boards<\/p>\n Venture into the paint at your own risk tonight. With Giannis and Kevin Porter Jr.<\/a> on one end and Adebayo and Ware at the other, we could see a lot of jump shots and some healthy rebounding totals \u2014 plus Bam has recorded a block in five straight games.<\/p>\n Bucks vs Heat SGP<\/p>\n Bam Adebayo Over 9.5 rebounds Bucks vs Heat odds<\/p>\n Spread: Bucks +6.5 | Heat -6.5 Bucks vs Heat betting trend to know<\/p>\n
