Miami Heat vs Phoenix Suns Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Joseph King | in NBA Predictions
Monday night in the NBA sees the Phoenix Suns heading to South Beach to take on the Miami Heat at the FTX Arena. It’s been a rocky start to the 2022/23 campaign for the Heat, who currently sit below .500 with a 6-7 record and occupying the 10th position in the Eastern Conference. Phoenix comes into this game closing out a four game road trip of which they’re 1-2 following the defeat to the Magic in their last outing. The Suns sit 8-4 on the season so far which is good for the third seed in the Western Conference.

Miami Heat - Phoenix Suns: Form Analysis
=11ptAfter a slow start to the season, the Heat look to be finding their feet after back-to-back wins over the Hornets. Erik Spoelstra’s team has the opportunity to extend their winning streak to three straight games if they are able to overcome the Suns as Miami plays their fourth consecutive home game. On the other side, Phoenix have been showing their inconsistencies on the road. Last season’s Western Conference semi-finalists are a stellar 6-1 on their home court but see their record drop to just 2-3 away from home. A 114-97 loss to a poor Magic side in their last game means the Suns have now failed to crack the 100 points scored mark in two of their three games on this current four game road trip.

Miami Heat & Phoenix Suns Squad Analysis
Influential point guard Chris Paul is doubtful for this game which is likely going to negatively impact Phoenix’s ball movement and general flow of their offense. In addition to missing Cam Johnson and Jae Crowder, as well as playing with a clearly limited Deandre Ayton due to injury, the Suns find themselves in a really tough spot here. The Heat were without Tyler Herro in the win over Charlotte but got a huge contribution from Max Strus, who exploded for 31 points on 8-14 shooting from three.
Miami Heat - Phoenix Suns Key Points
- The Suns have failed to score at least 100 points only twice this entire season, both coming on this current four game road trip.
- The Heat have been catching fire on home court recently, winning four of their last five at the FTX Arena.
- The Suns have worryingly been outrebounded in all three games on their current road trip, losing the battle on the glass by a combined 136-111.

Our Miami Heat vs Phoenix Suns Prediction
We’re going to back the Miami Heat to get the win and cover the -1.5 spread in this game. This is a difficult spot for Phoenix as they are banged up and will likely be desperate to return back home as they close out their four game road trip here. Miami, on the other hand, are playing their fourth straight at home and should be able to maintain the same rhythm that has seen them win two of their last three. The Heat are being slightly undervalued here and should probably be closer to -3 point favorites given the current situation both teams find themselves in.
