Miami Heat vs Memphis Grizzlies. The NBA pick for this game is the Miami Heat. After competing in the Motor City on Sunday against the Detroit Pistons and then hosting the Heat on Monday, Memphis will face its second match in as many nights.

 

When competing against a club that has a losing straight-up record, like Miami does with an 11-12 record, the Grizzlies failed to cover the spread in each of the previous four games.

 

The Heat just defeated Boston, who is currently in first place in the Atlantic division. Jimmy Butler, Miami’s top scorer, and Tyler Herro, its third-leading scorer, are both back on the field.

 

Miami now boasts a very strong inside/outside approach on offense thanks to Bam Adebayo, who moved up to 2nd place in shooting with an average of 20.0 points per game and is likewise dominating the Heat in rebounding with an average of 9.1 boards per game.

 

Miami saw scoring slumps, most of which are the result of injuries, but the Heat maintained a strong defense and are now seventh in points surrendered with 110.3 points per game.

 

The Miami Heat will win to a predicted score of 116-113.
