Miami G Goran Dragic had his right knee drained and will miss the next three games. These two teams rank in the bottom half of the league in defensive efficiency, so the over is worth a look. The stronger play is on Brooklyn to win outright on Tuesday. Final Score Prediction, Brooklyn Nets win in upset but grab the points just in case 111-107.
