Miami Heat vs San Antonio Spurs Prediction
The Heat are going to be severely shorthanded with Tyler Herro and Norman Powell ruled out. They are also keeping an eye on Nikola Jovic who is questionable, while the Spurs will again be without De’Aaron Fox, Jeremy Sochan, Kelly Olynyk, and Luke Kornet. The Heat have managed to build a bit of momentum despite the off-court dramas, but the Spurs have kicked off their season with four straight wins, and it’s been Wenbenyama who has been such a handful so far.
The Heat looked great in their last win, but I still believe that the Spurs have been the better team so far. Wembenyama is on fire, and he is getting plenty of support from his teammates, so I will stick with the Spurs at home in this spot.
