(551) New York Knicks at (552) Miami Heat
7:40pm EST - Nov 17/2025

THE PLAY: Miami Heat -1.5 (-115)

Miami returns home off a 140-132 road loss in New York on Friday night.  The Heat will be playing with some quick, turnaround revenge against the Knicks tonight.  Miami has been terrific at home so far this season; they’re 5-1 with their lone loss coming in their last home game.  So off a loss with revenge, and off a recent home loss puts Miami is a good situational spot.  The Knicks shot 40% (21-53) in their win over Miami, but now on the road we can expect some regression.  Lay the short price with Miami at home in this game Monday night.

Play HEAT (-).
