by Devesh Jaganath | in NBA Prediction
The Miami Heat will head to the American Airlines Center to take on the Dallas Mavericks in the NBA on Thursday night. The hosts are 34-28 and eighth in the Western Conference, while the visitors are 35-26 and sixth in the Eastern Conference.
The Miami Heat have been on a roll, winning 11 of their last 14 games overall. They're now aiming for a third consecutive victory following a hard-fought 118-110 win over the Pistons on Tuesday. Jimmy Butler led the charge with 26 points and eight assists, while Duncan Robinson and Bam Adebayo each contributed 18 points. Miami ranks 27th in the NBA in offense with an average of 110.8 points per game, while Dallas ranks 24th defensively, allowing 118.3 points per game. Miami tends to perform better at home, where they average 113.7 points per game compared to 107.9 points per game on the road. However, their standout performance lies in their defense, conceding just 109.9 points per game, which ranks sixth in the league. Unfortunately, Miami will be without Tyler Herro, Patty Mills, and Kevin Love for this match, while Josh Richardson's availability remains uncertain.
Meanwhile, the Dallas Mavericks have been struggling, losing five of their last six games overall and are aiming to avoid a three-game losing streak here after a decisive 137-120 loss to the Pacers on Tuesday. Despite Luka Doncic's impressive triple-double performance of 39 points, 10 rebounds, and 11 assists, along with Kyrie Irving's contribution of 23 points, the Mavericks find themselves in a challenging position. While they rank sixth in scoring in the NBA with an average of 118.7 points per game, they face a tough opponent in the Heat, who rank fifth in points allowed per game at 109.9. Defensively, Dallas has struggled, conceding an average of 118.3 points per game, placing them 24th in the league. However, they have shown slightly better defensive performance at home, where they allow 117.1 points per game, compared to 119.7 points per game on the road. The Mavericks are fortunate to have no injuries heading into this match.

Our Dallas Mavericks vs Miami Heat Prediction
The Mavericks are the favourites here owing to their clean injury roster and with this being a home game but they are in a real slump at the moment with five losses in their last six games. In contrast, the Heat are steadily improving lately and are now 8-2 in their last ten games. We feel this will be a very close game, so we’re backing the Heat and the extra points. Our Dallas Mavericks vs Miami Heat prediction: Miami Heat +4.5.
