While Jimmy Butler's questionable status may create some doubt, it's not stopping us from backing Miami tonight. Find out why in our Heat vs. 76ers betting picks below.
With a matching 37-30 record, the 76ers only trail the Heat based on head-to-head record. Philadelphia is still waiting on Joel Embiid’s return but landed a much-needed win over the Hornets on Saturday behind 30 points from Tyrese Maxey.No one does a better job of extracting the most from a patchwork rotation than Erik Spoelstra, and he’s proving that again lately with key players sidelined.
It’s not just about Butler and Adebayo either. Duncan Robinson knocked down seven 3-pointers yesterday and the Heat are getting quality minutes from Jaime Jaquez Jr. and Terry Rozier, who’s had 16+ points in three of his last four. Of course, Butler becoming active would only raise my confidence. The 76ers are papering over Embiid’s absence with Mo Bamba and Paul Reed sharing the center minutes.
Butler’s health hangs over tonight’s contest, with the 76ers pegged as favorites given the uncertainty, but there’s not much to get excited about in the hosts’ recent form — Philadelphia has lost five of its last seven games and hasn’t scored more than 109 points since March 3.
