Heat vs Wizards prediction

Given the market's 38.5% probability for O/U 242.5, I'm leaning NO on the Over. The Heat are on a 5-game win streak with a top-5 defense, while the Wizards are on an 8-game skid with poor road form (10-20 ATS). Projections suggest a total of 230-236 points, well below 242.5. Key Heat injuries (Wiggins, Powell, potentially Ware) reduce their scoring depth, despite a prior 31-point win over Washington. The Wizards, even with Trae Young active, are in tank mode and struggle offensively. Public betting trends also lean Under, aligning with Miami's defensive strength. While the market odds are close, situational factors like injuries and the Wizards' lack of motivation slightly tilt me toward Under, though I stay near market consensus with moderate confidence.
