The Miami Heat will wrap up a five-game road trip when they face the Phoenix Suns, who are back home for the first time in two weeks.
Phoenix will be without its leading scorer, Devin Booker, and my Heat vs Suns predictions call for a big offensive performance from Dillon Brooks.
Here are my free NBA picks for this inter-conference matchup from Mortgage Matchup Center on Sunday, January 25.
Heat vs Suns prediction
Heat vs Suns best bet: Dillon Brooks Over 22.5 points (-125)
Devin Booker left Friday’s loss to the Hawks on crutches, and Jalen Green left early with a hamstring injury. Someone’s got to pick up the slack on offense, and Dillon Brooks is in a prime spot to get buckets at home.
Booker has been ruled out, and Jalen Green is questionable, which means Brooks should be in line for a big bump in offensive responsibilities against the Miami Heat tonight.
Brooks has averaged 23.9 points per game at home, and he finished with 25 points against Miami in his first matchup of the season.
The scrappy wing has scored at least 22 points in 17 games, including 11 of 15 at home. Miami has allowed the seventh-most points per game, setting up Brooks to hit the Over.
Heat vs Suns same-game parlay
Bam Adebayo has averaged 37.5 PRA across his last seven games, hitting the Over four times. Kel’el Ware is sidelined again, and Bam is set up for another bump in production. He also went for 42 PRA when he faced the Suns on January 13.
The Phoenix Suns have home-court advantage, but without Devin Booker and potentially Jalen Green, the Suns may struggle to keep up with Miami’s high-scoring offense. The Heat are 26-20 against the spread overall and 13-11 on the road.

Our “from downtown” SGP: Gettin Wiggy with it
Andrew Wiggins is averaging 15.9 points this season, and he’s scored 14+ in 27 of 42 games overall. He’s hit the Over on this modest scoring line in six straight, and I expect him to keep that streak going on the road.
