Oddsmakers currently have the Heat listed as 9-point favorites versus the Magic, while the game’s total is sitting at 197½.
Miami guard Dwyane Wade had a philosophical view after Saturday’s loss to Toronto all but sealed Miami’s playoff fate. “It’s unfortunate but it’s a part of life,” Wade told reporters. “But I’m proud of every guy who came in here, from the D-League, from China, wherever they were and represented the Heat the right way this year.” Wade scored 30 points in the loss against the Raptors and has tallied 24 or more in three of the past five games.
Last time out for Miami, they were a 107-104 loser as they battled the Raptors at home. The Heat failed to cover in the match as a -3.5-point favorite, while 211 combined points moved the game OVER for totals bettors.
Team record: 35-45 SU,34-43-3 ATS

Miami is 1-6 SU in its last 7 games
The total has gone OVER in 5 of Miami’s last 6 games
Miami is 1-4 ATS in its last 5 games at home
Guard Victor Oladipo scored 21 points against the Knicks but it was due more to hoisting up 25 shots (making eight) than being efficient. Oladipo is shooting just 35.8 percent over the last five games, beginning with a 4-of-19 effort against Minnesota on Apr. 3. Center Nikola Vucevic had 12 points and 13 rebounds against New York after going three straight games without a double-double.
Orlando was a 80-79 loser in its last match at home against the Knicks. They failed to cover the -11-point spread as favorites, while the total score of 159 sent UNDER bettors to the payout window.
Team record: 25-55 SU,41-38-1 ATS
Orlando is 4-1 ATS in its last 5 games
Orlando is 4-12 SU in its last 16 games
The total has gone UNDER in 5 of Orlando’s last 6 games
