Our Miami Heat vs Portland Trail Blazers Prediction

The Heat-Hornets game was set at over 240 in pregame odds but dropped to 236.5 at tip-off. The Heat attempted fewer three-pointers than usual, only 28, but were very efficient, sinking 12. They were also effective from the free-throw line, making 12 of 14.

However, the Heat are playing without Adebayo due to a toe injury and Powell due to an ankle injury. This could contribute to Miami getting involved in another low-scoring game.

Our prediction for Heat vs Trail Blazers is: Under 240.5 points.

Prediction:

 

Under 240.5 points.
