The Miami Heat have covered the spread in 5 of their last 7 games.

On Thursday, the Heat will have a -7.5-point handicap against the Bulls, who have lost their last three games.

Best Pick: The Heat -7.5 points

Potential Payout: $210 on a $110 Bet at DraftKings

Current Form:

The Heat are 3-2 in their last five games, but lost their last assignment against the Minnesota Timberwolves, 94-122, on January 6. The Heat only had three players scoring in double figures in this game, with Norman Powell finishing with a team-high 21 points. The Heat shot a cold 36 percent from the field and turned the ball over 17 times.

Meanwhile, the Bulls have lost their last three games, including a 93-108 loss to the Detroit Pistons on January 7. With Josh Giddey not expected to play until January 22, the Bulls’ offense has looked out of sync in the last three games. Averaging 117.1 points per game this season, the Bulls failed to score at least 117 points in the last three games.

Our Chicago Bulls vs Miami Heat Prediction

Fearless Forecast: The Heat top the Bulls 125-113

It’s obvious the Bulls aren’t the same squad without Josh Giddey, who is the leading scorer and facilitator of the team. Against the Heat, Chicago faces the same squad that routed them 143-107 on November 21. In that game, Giddey flirted with a triple-double (19 points, 11 rebounds and 9 assists) but the Bulls just didn’t have enough firepower to outscore the run-and-gun Heat.
