Our Phoenix Suns vs Miami Heat Prediction

While Miami have had to deal with several injuries this season, they have managed to continue churning out positive results and looked very good when they took down King James and the Lakers on Wednesday night. Durant’s return could lift the Suns to victory here, but we fancy the Heat to keep it very tight. Our Phoenix Suns vs Miami Heat prediction: Miami Heat +4
