LA Clippers vs Miami Heat Betting Tips

Bam Adebayo's recent success suggests he could have a big rebounding night if Ivica Zubac returns. He's averaged 12.1 boards in his previous eight games versus Zubac since the Bubble season, and he's cleaned 11 or more boards in all but one of them. One possible bet to take could be Bam Adebayo over 10.5 rebounds.

Terrance Mann may get a usage bump if Zubac plays. With the Heat not very good at preventing corner threes and Mann ranking in the 76th percentile for a 3-point rate (26%), another possible bet could be Terrance Mann over 6.5 points
