Klay Thompson has been a productive scoring option for Miami this season, averaging 14.7 points per game across his first ten appearances. That puts him above the 13,5-point line.
His recent scoring form is particularly encouraging. Thompson has recorded 23, 11, 30, 19 and 25 points in his last five games, going over this line four times. He is also coming off an excellent 23-point performance against Sacramento.
Thompson’s perimeter shooting gives him a strong route to reaching this mark. He is averaging four made three-pointers per game, making his ability to get hot from beyond the arc a major factor in this matchup.
