Miami Heat vs Los Angeles Lakers 2/20/2021 Betting Odds
Miami Heat BettingThe Miami Heat continue to struggle this season but they are showing signs that they are turning things around. This team just snapped a three-game winning streak last game against the Sacramento Kings with a score of 118-110. Prior to that, they were on a four-game winning streak and their current record is now at 12-17. The Heat is still trying their best to just even clinch a play-in berth and their injury list is getting thinner as time goes by. Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo are playing very well and it is not too late for the Heat to make a huge run with their team’s character. Players to watch: B.

Los Angeles Lakers BettingThe Los Angeles Lakers have slipped from the top of the NBA standings to trailing the Utah Jazz in the NBA Western Conference. A big blow to the team right now is the absence of Anthony Davis which will be putting LeBron James in a position that he will have to carry a huge load. Adding to that, Dennis Schroeder has been diagnosed with COVID-19 and will be missing a significant amount of time. This is the time that Kyle Kuzma should show that he is worth his potential. The Los Angeles Lakers are in a tough time but the team’s depth will be working for them through this. Players to Watch: L.
