Miami Heat vs Milwaukee Bucks prediction

The Milwaukee Bucks are a team I’ll continue to fade due to their inability to play defense, and them being on the end of a back to back doesn’t help here. However, the Heat are badly undermanned with Butler out, and Rozier and Robinson questionable. The Heat are sluggish offensively as it is, and there’s a chance they could be down three of their better players. I don’t want to side with the Bucks, but I can’t back the Heat in their current form. It’s Bucks or pass for me.
