NBA Odds: Heat-Nuggets prediction, odds and pick

Denver Nuggets host the Miami Heat in an interconference game. The Heat are back above .500 with an (18-17) record and hope to keep it that way. Denver is (22-12) and tied with the New Orleans Pelicans for the top seed in Western Conference.

The Heat are hoping to end the season on a high note. They beat the Lakers. Jimmy Buckets scored 27 points and Bam Adebayo 23. Butler, Gabe Vincent, and Caleb Martin are probable for tonight's game. Tyler Herro has been on an impressive scoring streak lately.

The Nuggets blew an 11-point lead against the Kings last time out. Jamal Murray, Bruce Brown, and Aaron Gordon are all questionable but should suit up. Jeff Green is the only one who is out tonight. The Nuggets are the favorite at home.

This is expected to be a close game. The Nuggets are (12-3) in the Mile High.
