The Miami Heat hosts the Oklahoma City Thunder on Saturday, seeking to snap OKC’s five-game winning streak.

Best Pick: The Thunder -10.5 points (-108)

Payout: $192 on a $100 bet

Current Form:

Miami has gone 1-4 in its last five games, with the only win of this stretch coming against the Phoenix Suns 127-121. In their most recent loss to the Boston Celtics, 114-119, the Heat got 20+ points each from Norman Powell (26 points), Bam Adebayo (22 points) and Tyler Herro (22 points), but they could still not outscore the Celtics, who outscored them 36-21 in the fourth quarter.

Meanwhile, the Thunder have steamrolled their next five opponents since their back-to-back losses to the Phoenix Suns and the Charlotte Hornets two weeks ago. Led by their MVP, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, OKC earned its first win over the San Antonio Spurs (119-98) this season and topped the Houston Rockets anew (111-91).

Our Miami Heat vs Oklahoma City Thunder Prediction

Fearless Forecast: The Thunder dominate the Heat again, 122-108

Reason: OKC blew out the Heat, 124-112, several days ago as the league’s best defense put the clamps on Miami, holding them to 112 points. Apart from their 5-0 SU in its last 5 games against Miami, the Thunder have been terrific on the road against Miami, boasting a 7-1 ATS in its last 8 games when playing Miami at Kaseya Center. As for the Heat, they will miss the service of Jaime Jaquez Jr. (knee) and Davion Mitchell (shoulder), who are both key contributors on the team.
