Phoenix Suns vs Miami Heat prediction

The Phoenix Suns are on the end of a back to back while the Heat are rested, at home and desperate for a win to end a 6-game skid. Throw in the fact Terry Rozier is getting more comfortable with his new team and the return of Jaime Jaquez, and in theory this is a game the Heat should win. However, the Heat have a 90s offense that struggles to break 90 points, and I’m not laying chalk with them, especially with Durant, Booker, and Beal on the other side. This line is strange. Give me the Suns and the free buckets in a game they could win outright.
