Golden State Warriors -4.5
(NBA) Warriors (GSW) vs. Heat (MIA),
Point Spread: -4.50 | -110.00 Warriors (GSW) (Away)
Result: Loss
These teams have trended in opposite directions since the deal that sent Butler III to Golden State with Wiggins coming to South Beach. While the Warriors have gone 16-4 since the trade, Miami is a dismal 5-17, going from the top spot in the Southeast Division to holding the final spot in the play-in tournament. While Curry is a question mark here, the Warriors have plenty of depth to lean on in their rotation. Meanwhile, Miami has crumbled and just snapped a 10-game slide by beating one of the worst teams in the league in the Hornets. Even with that win, the Heat still trailed by double figures in the first half before getting in gear. The Heat are a sub-.500 team at home (16-19) this season: take the Warriors here, even if Curry doesn’t suit up.
