NBC Sports Bet Best Bet
Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) likes the Heat for ML parlays:
“Miami is on a positve four-game winning streak to give them some life down the stretch compared to Washington who is in the middle of their tankathon. The Wizards have dropped six of the past seven games and I think the losing continues here hosting Miami. It’s Heat ML for parlays with a lean of Miami -8.5 for me.
