The road Trail Blazers enter 6-3 straight up and 7-2 against the spread so far this season. They’re coming off of a bad 102-82 loss to the Phoenix Suns—only the second game all year the team couldn’t cover at +12.
The home Heat enter 4-6 straight up and 2-8 against the spread on the year. They’re coming off of a 101-99 loss to the Indiana Pacers ahead of which they were three-point favorites.
This is the second matchup between these two teams in 2022-23. They previously met on October 27 when the Heat won 119-98 in Portland.
Portland Trail Blazers
Portland’s hot streak to start the year has cooled significantly, but the team holds a strong record straight up, a top-four seed out West and it has the understanding that the regression is due to the starting backcourt being out with injuries.
The Trail Blazers enter this contest scoring 109.8 points per game. That number puts them in the No. 24 spot roughly 12 percent of the way through the season.
In terms of Offensive Efficiency, Portland averages 108.4 points per 100 possessions. That number is good enough for 19th and lands the Blazers in a tie with the Minnesota Timberwolves.
Defensively, the Trail Blazers give up 109.1 points per game—a number that places them in the sixth spot across the league.
In terms of Defensive Efficiency, the Blazers give up 107.7 points per 100 possessions, which puts them in the No. 12 position.
The Blazers expect to be without both Anfernee Simons (doubtful) and Damian Lillard (questionable) in Monday’s game against Miami. Josh Hart is probable as of this writing on Sunday, while Gary Payton II remains out and Justise Winslow is day-to-day.
Miami Heat
The Heat enter this contest scoring 108.1 points per contest. That number puts them in the No. 26 spot just about 10 percent of the way through the season.
In terms of Offensive Efficiency, Miami averages 107.4 points per 100 possessions. That number is good enough for 21st and puts the team in a tie with the Washington Wizards.
Defensively, the Heat give up 109.1 points per game—a number that places them in the No. 6 spot across the league, which is tied with Portland.
In terms of Defensive Efficiency, the Heat give up 108.4 points per 100 possessions, which puts them in 14th position so far.
Entering Monday’s contest against Portland, the Heat will be without Victor Oladipo and Omer Yurtseven. Tyler Herro remains questionable as of Sunday night.
Jimmy Butler is not on the injury report, indicating he’ll be back after his two-game absence.

Free Portland Trail Blazers vs. Miami Heat NBA Prediction:
The recent ATS trends overall for both teams points toward Portland covering, but the injuries to Simons and Lillard are a big deal. In fact, they’re probably what keeps the Blazers from wining straight up and covering in this one.
Miami gets the win, and by the final horn, it might look quite convincing.
