Heat vs. Spurs Betting Prediction
The Miami Heat are clearly the superior side, having won all of their last three. They come into this game with a decent 6-9 away record going up against this Spurs side who have been pretty woeful at home.
Tyler Herro's form is a great bonus for the Heat as he is compensating massively for the injury riddled Jimmy Butler. The Heat are very firmly placed to win this contest.
Heat : -7.5 (-110)
