Suns vs Heat Prediction
The Heat are still shorthanded with Kel’el Ware, Tyler Herro and Davion Mitchell all out, while the Suns have ruled out Devin Booker with Jalen Green listed as questionable. The Heat haven’t been able to hit their stride this season, but they would’ve taken plenty of confidence from their dominant win over the Jazz last night. However, the Suns are still the favorites in this matchup as they’ve been one of the more consistent teams all season. They could have Jalen Green return for this game, so I will stick with the more reliable Suns to take care of business at home.
