Washington Wizards vs Miami Heat Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Joseph King | in NBA Prediction
The 14th-place Washington Wizards will play host to the seventh-place Miami Heat in this NBA Eastern Conference matchup. The Wizards are coming off a 125-109 home defeat to the LA Clippers, snapping a rare two-game winning streak for the team. It’s been a struggle of a season for Wizards fans as their team holds the third-worst record in the league with nine wins and 38 losses. Things haven’t gone much better for Washington at the Capital One Arena where they’ve posted just three wins from 22 games. They’ve actually performed better on the road this season with six wins and 19 defeats from their 25 away trips. The Wizards have been decent on the offensive side of the ball, ranking 16th in the league with 115 points scored per game on average. It’s been their defense which has let them down as the team ranks dead last with 124 points allowed per game.
The Heat were finally able to put an end to an ugly seven-game losing streak with a 115-106 home victory over the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday. This has allowed them to stay just above their local rivals the Orlando Magic in the standings as the Heat sit seventh with a 25-23 record. This has them trailing the crucial sixth seed by 1.5 games which would provide automatic qualification to the NBA postseason. The Heat will have to take to the road here where they will attempt to win their 13th game of the season on their 25th trip. The Heat finally got their shot falling with the three ball in particular leading the team to victory. Miami dropped 13 from beyond the arc on 28 attempts (46.4%), while allowing Sacramento to shoot only 30% from three.
