New Orleans Pelicans vs Miami Heat Betting PicksOnline sportsbooks are bullish on the Heat to continue their winning run. Aside from the fact Miami is playing incredibly well in their first 11 games, New Orleans is pretty much banged up with injuries. Brandon Ingram could suit up for Saturday’s ballgame, but the prolonged absence of JJ Redick, Lonzo Ball, Josh Hart, and of course, Zion Williamson puts them in a tough spot against the Heat. Moneyline: The Heat are a perfect 4-0 SU at home with an average winning margin of 18 points. ATS: Again, the Heat has been super-dominant at American Airlines Arena in the last four home games, and won’t be surprised if this game ends in another blowout. TOTALs: This game will go UNDER the total, which opened at a high 230 points. The Pelicans and Heat are averaging a combined 229.72 points per game this season. Miami’s defense, though, is allowing opponents to just 104.91 points – 6th best in the league. Score Prediction: 118-107 Heat |
