Take Tennessee State -2.5
The Heat are (bad pun intended) hot right now, and those are facts. Miami has one of the best against the spread records in the NBA and owns a 41-12 overall record while going 9-1 in their last ten games played.

The Bucks are 37-25 this season and sit below the Heat within the Eastern Conference standings. Milwaukee has a 27-36 record against the spread this season and are 12-22 against the spread while being the home team. He is not a huge name but George Hill is out and he does affect the Bucks rotations, especially since Milwaukee has had health and depth issues all season. Kyle Lowry is someone who will remain out for the Heat in this ball game. Miami enters this game 13-5 as an underdog and have scored 110+ points in their last four games played while going 4-0 in those games. Miami ranks 5th in opponent FG% as a defense and are the 1st ranked rebounding team in the entire NBA.
