My NBA best bet for Tuesday is Miami to cover the spread versus Detroit.
Trends: The Pistons are 0-9 in their last nine home games on the first leg of a back-to-back and the Heat are 6-0 ATS in their last six games vs. EC opponents after winning as underdogs.
Miami won at Minnesota without Jimmy Butler on Sunday, as its defense carried the weight. There should be more offensive freedom without Butler's presence on Tuesday. Detroit is solid defensively but has offensive limitations (27th in offensive rating), especially from three-point range (22nd in 3PT%). If the Heat can win a defensive battle against the T-Wolves, they can do the same versus Detroit.
