Denver Nuggets vs Miami Heat Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Kennedy Kechula in NBA Predictions
The Denver Nuggets will be at home to welcome the Miami Heat in a mouthwatering NBA regular season matchup. Denver are currently third in the Western Conference while the Heat are fifth in the East. This will be the first meeting between these two since they battled in the NBA finals last season. An exciting matchup is therefore expected. The Nuggets emphatically defeated the Kings 117-96 last time out to extend their current winning run to four matches. Mike Malone’s men are now two games from top spot in the West after securing their 40th win. Denver, who defeated the Heat to win the Championship last year, have won three straight against Miami. The hosts have no new injuries to report with only long-term absentee Vlatko Cancar the only player on the injury report. The Nuggets are averaging 121.0 points over their last three games.
The Heat are also in red-hot form and have won their last five fixtures. All five games have been on the road. Erik Spoelstra’s men, who are concluding a six-game road trip with this match, defeated the Trail Blazers 106-96 last time out. In this hot streak, Miami have defeated three of the top 15 performing teams. They have secured wins over the Bucks, Sixers and Kings. The win in Portland was their 33rd of the season and took them to within five games of second place in the East. Kevin Love managed 14 minutes against the Blazers and scored eight points. The veteran forward has however been ruled out for this game due to a heel problem. He joins Josh Richardson and Dru Smith as the confirmed absentees. Tyler Hero has missed the last two matches but has a 50% chance of playing. The Heat rank in the bottom four in offence but are third in defence, holding teams to 109.9 points a game.
