In the game against the Grizzlies, Tyler Herro was the highest scorer with 24 points. Kyle Lowry added 17 points and Jimmy Butler only 10.

Jimmy Butler, Victor Oladipo, Bam Adebayo, Markieff Morris, and most likely Caleb Martin will definitely not play for the Miami Heat.

Miami Heat vs Milwaukee Bucks Tips:

Just a few days ago, the Bucks defeated the Heat on their home court, and not much has changed since then. The Heat is still experiencing squad problems that are preventing them from getting back on the winning track.

At the same time, the reigning champions are in great form and we see no reason why they couldn’t win confidently again.

Our first prediction and bet are the handicap (-5.5) for the Milwaukee Bucks with the odds of 1.90 with the VBet bookmaker.

The Heat does have losses, so it is unlikely that the home team will go out in the open against the reigning champions. There is a good chance that Erik Spoelstra will rely on defense in order to contain his opponent’s attacks.

Our second prediction and bet are the Heat’s individual points under 107.5 with the odds of 1.81 with the Vbet bookmaker.
