Heat Jazz Parlay Picks: ATS, Two Prop Bets for Jan. 9
1. Miami Heat ATS (-5½)
While the Utah Jazz handed the Miami Heat a 36-point beatdown a few days ago, and with SF Jimmy Butler out of the picture, you might think backing Miami here is ridiculous. But stay with me – I’m riding with the Heat, giving the points on the road in this rematch.
Sure, Miami got embarrassed at home, but they’re coming off a solid win over the Warriors and are set to face a Jazz team missing key pieces: PF John Collins (17.9 points per game), G Keyonte George (15.6 points), and PG Jordan Clarkson (16 points).
Without Butler, C Bam Adebayo and PG Tyler Herro have taken the reins. Herro continues to lead with 23.6 points per game, while Adebayo is rolling, chipping in 16.2 points and 9.8 rebounds. Their two-man show isn’t flashy, but it’s steady enough to take advantage of a depleted Jazz squad.

This one’s about pride and payback. Bank on Miami to shake off their home-court embarrassment and run up the score in Salt Lake City.
2. Jazz PF Lauri Markkanen Under 5.5 Rebounds (-122)
While the Jazz will rely heavily on their leading scorer, PF Lauri Markkanen, to carry the offensive load in this matchup, I’m banking on the Finnish power forward to finish with under six rebounds. This NBA player prop pick is as good as it gets.
Markkanen may be averaging 6.2 rebounds per game this season, but in their last matchup against Miami, he only managed to grab four boards. Zoom out a little, and he’s cleared six rebounds just once in his last five games.

Simply put, Miami’s physicality in the paint doesn’t give him much breathing room to clean the glass. Bet on Markkanen staying under six rebounds.
Bet This Pick: Lauri Markkanen Under 5.5 Rebounds (-122)
3. Heat C Bam Adebayo 16+ Points
With Jimmy Butler out of the picture, there’s no question a chunk of the Heat’s offensive workload falls on C Bam Adebayo. And after back-to-back strong performances on the road against Western Conference teams, Adebayo looks ready to deliver again. I’m banking on him to hit at least 16 points in this rematch.

The last time these teams met, Adebayo had an uncharacteristic game, shooting just six times and finishing with four points. You can bet that’s still on his mind, and he’ll be looking for redemption. Averaging 16 points this season and hitting that mark in four of his last five games, Adebayo is one of the best NBA player props tonight.
Bet This Pick: Bam Adebayo 16+ Points
