Warriors vs. Heat: Prediction, point spread, odds, over/under, betting picks

Our prediction and best bet for Monday’s Warriors vs. Heat game, with odds from @Tipico Sportsbook.

Jimmy Butler and the Miami Heat visit the Golden State Warriors on Monday night, and if you’re looking to do some last-minute betting research, you’re in luck! We’ll give you the latest point spread, money line odds and over/under number, as well as the information you’ll need to make the smartest bet at Tipico Sportsbook.

The game tips off at 7 p.m. PT and can be seen on NBA TV, NBC Sports Bay Area and Bally Sports Sun (Heat).

The Heat (23-14) are missing a long list of players and are playing the second half of a back-to-back after falling in Sacramento on Sunday night. The Warriors (28-7) are nearly at full strength and are expected to welcome Draymond Green back to the lineup on Monday.

Advice and prediction

This should not be a close game, and anything short of a double-digit Warriors win will be a disappointment for Steve Kerr’s squad. The Heat roster is a shell of its usual self. While Jimmy Butler could very well have a big game and keep Miami close, the Warriors have all the pieces they need to turn this into a blowout. I like playing it a little safe here and guarding against a backdoor with a first-half spread bet, taking the Warriors minus-5.5 at minus-130 odds.

I’m also taking the under on Steph Curry’s point total of 28.5. With Jordan Poole back and likely in line for a larger role than the one he saw against the Jazz, and with the possibility this game is lopsided and gives Kerr a chance to rest his superstar, the Warriors likely shouldn’t need a huge night from Steph — and 28.5 is a big number on its own.

Prediction: Warriors 118, Heat 103
