Starting with the Miami Heat and Chicago Bulls, Miami is going into the game as a heavy -245 favorite with 6.5 points in their direction on the spread.

The Heat have been taking some heavy action on the spread with 67% of the total bets on them covering which had a role in their opening -5.5 line shifting to where its at now.

Miami is carrying over a heavy trend into the new season having gone 9-4 ATS in their last 13 games and 4-0 ATS in their last four meetings with the Bulls overall.

Moving on to the matchup between the Cavaliers and Raptors, the Cavs are a slight 2.5-point underdog on the road in this one, however, the public has been laying action in both directions.

On the spread, it is Toronto taking the majority of bets with 59% to cover. On the moneyline though, Cleveland is seeing a whopping 73% of bets to win outright. It makes sense as to why the public is all over the Raptors covering as the Cavs are 3-9 ATS overall in their last 12 games and 1-6 ATS in their last seven road games.

Toronto, on the other hand, has gone 5-1 ATS in their last six games played on a Wednesday and are 5-1 ATS in their last six meetings with the Cavaliers.

In the late window, the Dallas Mavericks will square up against the Phoenix Suns in a rematch of their playoff series from last season. The Suns are the favorites going into this one at -195 on the moneyline with a 4.5-point spread in place.

Although Phoenix is a favorite at home in this one, it is Dallas taking 70% of the bets to cover the spread and are close to even at 47% of bets on the moneyline. This is one of the more evenly matched games on the slate as Dallas has gone 4-1 ATS in their last five meetings with the Suns and Phoenix has gone 10-4 ATS in their last 14 home games against the Mavs.
