Miami Heat vs. Philadelphia 76ers Prediction
The Miami Heat are coming off a back-to-back and are coming off an emotional victory over the Pistons. No possible disappointment for the Heat. Additionally, Jimmy Butler is dealing with a foot problem. The Philadelphia 76ers should be favored due to their home court and remainder advantage. That said, the 76ers have lost 6 of their last 10 games and are 3-6-1 ATS during that stretch. The 76ers are also still down on Embiid, Covington and Melton, while Harris is questionable and Jones has also already been ruled out. The Heat have won 6 of the last 7 games against the 76ers. Give me the road dog.
