Miami hasn’t missed a beat since losing Chris Bosh and center Hassan Whiteside. The team is 8-2 without Bosh and 6-3 without Whiteside and will face a Milwaukee squad tonight that lost for the fifth time in seven games on Monday. In the their back-to-back losses to Chicago and Oklahoma City, the Bucks shot a combined 38.7 percent and were 10-for-37 (27.0 percent) from 3-point range.
Even though Jabari Parker, Khris Middleton and Giannis Antetokounmpo are playing well for Milwaukee, the Bucks are just 2-5 against the spread in their last seven home games while the Heat have covered in five of their last six road games. Miami is also 8-2 ATS in its last 10 games overall and 11-2 ATS in its last 13 games versus Eastern Conference opponents.
