Miami Heat (20-19) versus Denver Nuggets (24-13) is an inter-conference matchup at the Kaseya Center on Friday night. The Heat will be looking to recover from their recent two-game loss against the Clippers and the Lakers. They'll be glad to be finally back on their home court after playing six of their last matches on the road. The Heat were solid during those away assignments, winning on three occasions. They now have three matches to play at home, starting with the in-form Nuggets, who have a 7-3 record over the previous 10 games. The Nuggets will hope to bounce back from their 20-point defeat against Western Conference rivals, the Rockets, and continue their resurgence this year. They sit comfortably in fourth position, 9.5 games behind the Thunder at the top.

Our Miami Heat vs Denver Nuggets Prediction

The Nuggets will aim to make it six away wins on the bounce on Friday night. However, they must do so without Nikola Jokic, who missed their last match with an elbow injury. They looked devoid of ideas without the three-time MVP award winner against the Rockets. Aaron Gordon was also rested on Wednesday night and could be back against Miami. The Heat have looked strong in defense this season, giving up an average of 109.3 points per match, which is seventh in the NBA. However, they may struggle to keep out Denver's rampant attack, especially if Jokic is fit to play. Our prediction for Miami Heat vs Denver Nuggets: Miami Heat for the win.

Prediction:

 

Miami Heat for the win.
