Miami Heat vs Cleveland Cavaliers Prediction & Picks - NBA
by Bill Christy in NBA Picks
The #3 team in the Eastern Conference, the Cleveland Cavaliers, will host the #8 Miami Heat. The Heat’s Jimmy Butler remains questionable after he sat out the team’s last game against the 76ers. If Butler sits once again, this one should not be as close as the -3.5-point line is indicating. These teams are so complimentary of each other, in the fact that they have split the series 5-5 over their last 10 meetings. Bam Adebayo and Terry Rozier have been trying to keep the Heat afloat, while the Cavs will have the bulk of the injuries to deal with in this one. Donovan Mitchell, Max Strus, and Evan Mobley are all out for this one. Caris Levert has stepped up in the absence of Mitchell and dropped 21 and 23 in his last two games. He and Jarrett Allen will need to be the driving force for the Cavs to pick up this home victory. Darius Garland has seemingly stepped back for Levert but if he is able to get back to his form from earlier this season, the Cavs will remain one of the most dangerous teams in the East.

Our Miami Heat vs Cleveland Cavaliers Prediction
This is a “get home” game for the Heat. It is the 4th and final game of their road trip and the Heat will likely be looking forward to boarding the plane home early in this one. After back-to-back wins over Detroit, they dropped their latest game to Philly while the Cavs are riding the momentum after a solid win over the Pacers on Monay night. These two will meet again in just 4 days in Miami where things are likely to turn out differently but here in Indiana, we like the Pacers.
Our prediction for Miami Heat vs Cleveland Cavaliers: Cleveland to cover -3.5, -110 at DraftKings
