Charlotte Hornets vs Miami Heat prediction

The Hornets and Heat just played each other on Monday and the game was decided by two points. While the Heat have won 8 of the last 10 meetings against the Hornets, it’s Charlotte that leads 5-4-1 ATS in those games. The Heat are still banged up with no Herro, Adebayo and Haywood Highsmith. These are just win and survive games for Miami given the injury situation. I’m not counting on margin here. Give me the Hornets and the points.
