Miami at Brooklyn

December 18, 2025
img7:30 PM Eastern

Miami has finally found a team to end its losing streak as the Heat travel to play Brooklyn, which is 7-18 this season and 11-14 ATS. The Nets have won just three of 13 home games (5-8 ATS). The Nets have lost their past seven Thursday games, and they are 6-14 against the Eastern Conference. Brooklyn is 3-12 ATS in their past 15 games against teams with winning records and 2-8 ATS after scoring more than 125 points in their previous game. The Nets shot 53 percent in their shocking 45-point win over Milwaukee on Sunday. It didn't go OVER due to the Bucks' offensive ineptness, but if the Nets shoot close to that percentage, Miami has enough shooters to go OVER this relatively low posted total. Take the Heat and the OVER.
