*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, on Saturday, March 23rd. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Sunday, March 24th.
Cleveland Cavaliers
Last season was a Cinderella story for the Cavs who propelled up the ladder and rarely dealt with injury. This season, despite still holding a home-court seed they’ve dealt with constant injury woes.
They’ve battled the Bucks to gain the second seed but trail them by 2.0 games, however, now they need to be concerned about retaining the third seed as the Knicks have closed the gap to a game and the surging Magic are just 1.5 games back.
Cavaliers Stats
Through 59 games, Cleveland ranks 17th offensively (114.9), and fourth defensively (111.0) with a plus +3.8 net differential that ranks eighth overall.
The Cavaliers have a middling record against the spread posting a 34-34-2 performance this season.
Cavaliers Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Jarrett Allen, C (injured last game/probable Sunday — hand)
- Dean Wade, PG (downgraded to OUT— knee)
- Evan Mobley, C (upgraded to questionable — ankle)
- Max Strus, SG (OUT indefinitely—knee)
- Donovan Mitchell, PG (OUT indefinitely—nose)
- Ty Jerome, PG (OUT indefinitely—ankle)
Miami Heat
Continuing with the injury concerns, the Heat have dealt with that issue all season. Just as Miami gets someone back from an absence, someone else gets banged up and it’s finally taking a toll.
Miami had registered an 11-3 record but through the last nine are 3-6, primarily because of the numerous core players who are out. It’s resulted in the Heat dropping to seventh and losing ground on the Pacers who are ahead by 1.5 games now.
Heat Stats
Miami has slipped to 23rd offensively (112.7), and ninth defensively (112.5) while their net differential has shifted to a positive of +0.2 which ranks 18th overall.
The Heat emulate their win/loss performance with a 33-36-1 record against the spread through 70 matches.

- Kevin Love, PF (OUT indefinitely— heel)
- Josh Richardson, SG (OUT for the season — shoulder)
- Bam Adebayo, C (probable — back)

Free Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Miami Heat NBA Prediction:
Both teams limp into this match with core players out and several others questionable. Ultimately it comes down to the stars with the expectation Adebayo and Allen will play.
That factor (plus Jimmy Butler) has me leaning toward the Heat winning and covering.
