Bam Adebayo also had another impressive all-around game with 18 points, 8 rebounds and 9 assists.

The Magic won four of their last 10 games, while the Heat captured six wins out of 10 matches. Monday’s NBA betting lines began with the Heat at -6 point in spread betting but the odds had dwindled down to 4.5 after a few hours later. Jimmy Butler’s availability for this game will likely determine the final odds in Moneyline and spread betting.

Moneyline: Bet on the Heat at -210. Although Orlando dominated their intra-state rivals the last time around, Miami should be a solid pick to win this one, more so if Butler is ready to play. The Heat’s loss to the Clippers marked only their second loss at home this season.

ATS: Back the Heat to cover the 4.5-point spread. Miami is 4-2 against the spread in their last six games.

TOTALs: Pick the OVER at 212 points. We all know the Magic is the lowest-scoring team in the NBA at 103 points per game. However, the total score adjusted for this game isn’t that high for these teams to cover. Plus, the OVER is 8-2 in the Heat’s last 10 games.

Score Prediction: 118 – 99 Heat
