Phoenix Suns at Miami Heat odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Monday’s Phoenix Suns at Miami Heat odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Phoenix Suns (8-4) face the Miami Heat (6-7) Monday at FTX Arena. Tip-off is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Suns vs. Heat odds, and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Suns have had 2 days of rest after a disappointing 114-97 loss to the Orlando Magic Friday as they failed to cover as 7-point favorites. Phoenix is getting stellar contributions from G Devin Booker, who is averaging 26.7 points on 47.5% shooting with 4.5 rebounds, 5.6 assists and 1.0 steals per game.

The Heat are riding a 2-game win streak — with both wins coming against the Charlotte Hornets — the most recent of which was a 132-115 victory Saturday as they covered as 8.5-point  home favorites.

Suns at Heat picks and predictions

Prediction

Suns 113, Heat 108

Moneyline

Even with Paul being questionable for Phoenix, give me the SUNS (+102). Even if he doesn’t play, the Suns should be able to make it a competitive game and steal a win on the road versus a potentially shorthanded Heat team.

Against the spread

SUNS +1.5 (-108) is the ideal choice in this game considering that I took Phoenix to win outright. The Suns have won 4 out of the last 5 meetings against the Heat.

The Heat are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 games against an opponent with a winning record and 1-8 ATS in their last 9 games following a win. Meanwhile, the Suns are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 road matchups with the Heat.

Over/Under

Neither of these teams plays at a fast pace. The Suns play at the 4th-slowest pace in the league while the Heat play at the 8th-slowest pace in the NBA. That being said, I’ll take OVER 215.5 (-110) for Monday’s showdown.

The Over has gone 7-3 in the last 10 meetings between the Suns and the Heat.

Against the spread (ATS)

The Suns continue to be a great bet. They now have the league’s best ATS record at 28-13 and second-best cover percentage on the road at 72.2 percent. They have covered the spread in every single win this season. Phoenix hasn’t covered the spread in a loss this year.

Miami is 18-24-1 ATS this season and 8-13-1 ATS at home. Phoenix is completely healthy. They should win this game.

Take the SUNS -1.5 (-110).

Over/Under (O/U)

The Suns have had three of their last four games go Under the total and they have allowed 101 points or fewer in three of their last four as well.

Seven of the last 10 for the Heat have gone Under. Miami’s Over percentage is 44.2%, the seventh-lowest in the league.

Take UNDER 215.5 (-110).
