Why The Heat Could Cover The Spread

The Miami Heat are coming into this game with a laundry list on the injury report that includes key players Jimmy Butler, Kyle Lowry, Jaime Jacquez Jr, Josh Richardson, and Duncan Robinson all listed as ‘questionable' ahead of this one. They've been able to survive without their star Jimmy Butler in the past, but this team takes a major blow if the majority of the players listed above won't be able to suit up. Jaime Jacquez is just beginning to hit his stride and grow into his own as a player, they'll need him to stay healthy as much as possible after he's become their go-to guy off the bench.

For once, Bam Adebayo is standing as the Heat's healthiest starter and he'll have his hands full with the tall frontcourt of the Utah Jazz. Still, Adebayo has been a defensive presence all season and he's taken a major leap in his improvement in protecting the rim. Look for him to have another strong game as he exploits mismatches against younger, less-experienced defenders. Tyler Herro has also had to step his scoring up amidst the injuries, so expect him to once again lead the charge and get his shots up in the half-court offense.

Why The Jazz Could Cover The Spread

The Jazz come into this game with a much healthier lineup and they'll be able to send their starting unit out onto the floor together. Perhaps injuries are the reason for the close spread as oddsmakers are giving Utah a serious chance to win the game at home. They'll have their frontcourt duo of Lauri Markkanen and Walker Kessler as the tallest players on the floor. Look for the Jazz to work the ball inside and draw fouls as they try to further compromise Miami's shorthanded lineup. If the Jazz can keep the Heat on defense and pressure them with 50/50 contests, they should be able to stifle them on offense.

The Utah Jazz are one of the better covering teams at home this year with a record of 10-3 ATS. While they should be the heavier underdogs here on paper, the injuries to Miami's side could prove to be crucial and it opens a golden opportunity for the Jazz to hop back on track with a win. Expect them to play fast in transition as they try to put the Heat into a hold early. If they can jump out to a lead at home, they should have enough support to finish the job and grab the win.

Final Heat-Jazz Prediction & Pick

The odds here would look much differently if Miami's team was healthy coming in, but the injuries should prove to leave a massive hole in their offensive production. If the Jazz can play fundamental ball and find their shooting rhythm early, they should be able to lead this game for the majority of the time. With Kessler and Markkanen manning the middle, the Jazz should have the advantage scoring in the paint all night. For our prediction, let's roll with the Utah Jazz to grab this win at home.

Final Heat-Jazz Prediction & Pick: Utah Jazz +1.5 (-108)
