Monday features the Miami Heat and Philadelphia 76ers playing for the third of four scheduled contests this season. Miami won both prior contests and will host the final meeting on April 4th.
Miami is completing a back-to-back set having hung on to beat the Pistons 104-100 while the 76ers played Saturday in a 109-98 winning effort versus the Hornets.
Season Series
Last season the teams played three times with the Heat taking two of the three contests. Miami also holds the all-time record between the clubs with 71 victories in 136 matches.
*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, on Sunday, March 17th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Monday, March 18th.
Miami Heat
After posting an 11-3 stretch the Heat hit a bump in the road losing four in-a-row but got back on track with consecutive wins versus the Pistons. Granted three of the teams they lost to were the red-hot Mavericks, Nuggets, and Thunder.
Jimmy Butler appears to be gearing his squad up for another deep playoff run as they set their sights on moving into more secure territory (read: the sixth or fifth seed).
Heat Stats
Miami ranks 21st offensively (113.1) and ninth defensively (112.4) with a plus net differential of +0.6 ranking in a tie for 17th overall.
The Heat perform in the middle ground against the spread with a 32-34-1 record through 67 matches.
Heat Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Kevin Love, PF (OUT indefinitely— heel)
- Josh Richardson, SG (OUT for season— shoulder)
- Tyler Herro, SG (OUT indefinitely — knee)
- Josh Richardson, SG (OUT for the season — knee)
- Nikola Jovic, SF (questionable — hamstring)
Philadelphia 76ers
It was a given the 76ers wouldn’t be as prolific without their superstar but Philly has regressed dramatically without their big man. Embiid played one game after January 27th while the team registered a record of 8-16 in that period.
More concerning is just how much the team has regressed … on January 25th the 76ers ranked fifth offensively, fourth defensively, and second in net differential. Entering this match they’ve plummeted to 13th, 12th and 10th respectively.
Worse yet, they rank 27th, 20th, and 25th since returning from the break!
76ers Stats
Philly ranks 13th offensively (116.7), and 12th defensively (114.1), and possesses a net differential of plus +2.6 which is ranked 10th overall.
The Sixers are one of the better bets against the spread with a 35-31-1 record through 67 contests.
76ers Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Tobias Harris, SF (questionable — ankle)
- De’Anthony Melton, SG (OUT indefinitely— back)
- Joel Embiid, C (OUT indefinitely — knee)
- Robert Covington, SF (OUT indefinitely — knee)
- Kai Jones, C (OUT Monday —hamstring)

Free Miami Heats vs. Philadelphia 76ers NBA Prediction:
Both teams will approach this like a playoff game and they should because of how it will impact the standings. The teams have identical records but Miami sits above Philly based on being up 2-0 in their season series.
The Pacers reside in sixth but hold only a half-game lead while the fifth-place Magic are still in reach up 2.5 games on them.
Despite the Heat stumbling a bit, they played the elite teams tough, and without Embiid the 76ers look more like a lower-end, play-in squad.
