Brooklyn Nets DFS SPIN
Cam Thomas scored 33 points on 10/17 shooting in the road win over Charlotte on Monday. Listen, we know Miami’s rugged identity is capable of slowing anyone down, but it’s hard to look away from how Thomas has opened the season. The former LSU guard has been given a green light early, and he’s churned out three 30-point outings to open the season. Playing time was the lone thing holding the 2021 first round pick back, and he’s now become their main source of offense here in 2023. Thomas is averaging 33.0 ppg, 4.0 rpg, and 2.0 apg through a small sample of three games.
Miami Heat DFS SPIN
Tyler Herro went off for 35 points on 12/21 shooting, with eight boards in the road loss to Milwaukee. The writing was on the wall for a signature spot from Herro, as he returned home to Wisconsin to oppose Damian Lillard, who he’d been rumored to be traded for all summer. The former UK man has come out with a chip on his shoulder, and we know there’s nothing like a motivated athlete. The 6’5 guard may tone things down here, but he’s cleared 22 points in three straight contests. Herro is averaging 25.3 ppg, with 5.3 rpg and 4.0 apg thru a light sample of four games.

Nets vs Heat NBA BETTING PREDICTION
Miami’s slow start should raise eyebrows, and while there’s plenty of time on the clock, they need to see success during this three-game home stand. Meanwhile, Brooklyn is coming in fresh off of a win over Charlotte, and they’ve competed well in all three games despite the 1-2 start. While they’ve kept things close, they also haven’t defended well without DPOY candidate Nic Clayton patrolling the yard, and that could hurt them against the drive-happy Heat. While I like Miami to win this game, let’s test Brooklyn’s positive trend with the Over for this Southeast battle.
