Miami should feel humbled by their loss to Brooklyn. I expect them to come out motivated on their home court and take no chances against a weak Washington team. Bam Adebayo averages 1.89 blocks and steals, so I'm surprised this line isn't closer to -140. Our model has him projected for 1.99.
I’d lay 10 tonight with Miami. Washington is the worst team in the NBA, showing no discipline on either ends of the floor. That's the exact opposite of the Heat.
The Washington Wizards travel to face a Miami Heat team that may rank as the top team in search of a win tonight. Slow starts of the Heat are nothing new as last year they began the season 7-11. They have had a difficult schedule to begin the season but also are lacking the depth they had last year with Gabe Vincent and Max Strus. Grab the points here with the Wizards.
While the Heat lost to the Nets on Wednesday, Tyler Herro scored 30 points and hit six three-pointers. That marked the third time over his last four games that he has scored at least 28 points. The key to his success has been his 28.8 percent usage rate, which isn’t likely to go down based on the Heat’s lack of scoring threats on the roster. I love the over for Herro with the Wizards having allowed an average of 126.3 points over their first four games.
