Hawks vs. Heat Prediction & Pick
The big news in this matchup surrounds superstar guard Jimmy Butler. Butler was ruled out ahead of this contest, although his absence (7 games) hasn't been as crushing as you'd think. The Heat are just 3-4 without their best player this season and actually have a better defensive rating when he's off the court.
Atlanta is the better team with all of Miami's injuries, but I expect this game to play closer than we think. Atlanta holds just a 0.2 plus-minus figure in overall scoring, meaning this game will come down to the wire.
Final Score Prediction:'Hawks: 110 | Heat: 107

Backing the Heat to cover the 5-point spread will only net us with -110 odds. For much more favorable odds, let's take a look at the win margin. Bet the Hawks to win by 1-10 points for much better +170 odds.
