Free NBA Prediction:
Jimmy Butler could be out again but considering who is out for Orlando it should logically dictate a Heat win… BUT it won’t necessaarily.
Either way, this is likely to be a low-scoring affair so instead of picking one team to win or cover I’ll roll with the over/under selecting the over (slightly).
