Miami Heat vs Atlanta Hawks Prediction & Picks - NBA
by Lou Aguila | in NBA Picks
The Miami Heat and the Atlanta Hawks will square off in a crucial game for playoff positioning on Tuesday, 7:30 pm US EST, at State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia.
The Heat are the betting favorites for this matchup, opening at -2.5 before the spread widened to -3.5 points.
The Miami Heat:
The Heat are coming off a costly loss to the Indiana Pacers, 117-115, which puts them 1.5 games behind the latter in the battle for the last outright playoff berth in the Eastern Conference. Jimmy Butler had an all-around performance vs. the Pacers, recording 27 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists. Apart from failing to come up with the big shots down the stretch, the Heat struggled mightily from long range, converting 8 of their 27 3-ball attempts.
The Atlanta Hawks:
The Hawks received good news upon hearing that Trae Young has been cleared to practice with the team. Getting Young in time for the play-in tournament is a big boost for the Hawks, who are direly missing their scoring and playmaking. Young is the Hawks' points and assists leader, averaging 26.4 points and 10.8 assists per game.

Our Miami Heat vs Atlanta Hawks Prediction
Miami took the first two games of their regular-season series convincingly before the Hawks edged them 109-108 on a buzzer-bearing 3-pointer from Dejounte Murray. The Heat are averaging 115.6 points on 47 FG% in three games vs. Atlanta. In those games, the Hawks averaged 110.3 points on 44 FG%. Young is still listed out for Tuesday's ballgame, which means Murray will once again carry a big chunk of the offensive load for the Hawks. Meanwhile, the Heat will play without Duncan Robinson and Terry Rozier due to injuries, forcing Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo to double up their production. ESPN match predictor gives the Heat a 57% chance of winning this crucial game, which will more likely decide if they will play in the play-in or secure an automatic bid in the playoffs.
