The Miami Heat have a 14-8 record heading into their next game in Orlando against the Magic. Miami won six straight games to close out November; in December, after scoring 140 points against the Clippers at the Kaseya Center, they finally lost on Wednesday against the Mavs. The statistics indicate that the Heat's defense has deteriorated compared to last year, allowing an average of 118 points per game, but they have compensated by averaging a high 123.6 points per game, along with a frenetic pace.
In the Heat's last loss against Dallas, Kel'el Ware recorded a double-double with 22 points and 10 rebounds, while Tyler Herro, in Game 5, returning from surgery to repair his foot and ankle, scored 20 points before being benched at halftime.
That same Wednesday, the Orlando Magic lost a thrilling game against the Spurs by two points, a surprising result given that the Magic were 8.5-point favorites in the betting odds due to Wembanyama's absence. Franz Wagner scored 25 points, grabbed 4 rebounds, dished out 6 assists, made 2 steals, and blocked 1 shot in the loss but was stopped on a last-second layup by Luke Kornet, allowing San Antonio to win on free throws by Fox with a final score of 114-112.

Our Orlando Magic vs Miami Heat Prediction
Recent reports suggest that several of the Heat's key players will be absent from Friday's game against the Magic. Miami will be managing Tyler Herro, who is gradually returning from surgery, so Larsson and Dru Smith could see additional minutes against Orlando.
Banchon, Moritz Wagner, and Castleton are out with injuries for Orlando. It will be a matchup between the Heat's Bam Adebayo, who is averaging 19.5 points per game this season, and Germany's Franz Wagner, who is averaging 23 points and 6.3 rebounds per game.
Our prediction for Miami Heat vs Orlando Magic is: Magic -5.5.
