Our Heat vs. Bulls parlay picks expect the road team's season-long struggles against the spread to play a factor in tonight's NBA Play-In Tournament game.

Tipoff for tonight's game is set for 7:30 p.m. ET (TNT) from the United Center in Chicago.

Our NBA Picks don't identify a real edge against the game total of 219.5, but we do believe Chicago can cover the spread as 1.5-point betting favorites at our best sports betting sites. The Bulls' spread play lays the groundwork for our same-game play-in parlay based on the best NBA SGP odds.

🔥 Bulls -1 ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Miami has been woeful covering spreads as a road team this season, so it’s a tough task for the Heat to get it done while trying to extend their campaign tonight. Miami is 16-23-1 against the spread in away games and 9-12-1 ATS as a road underdog.

The Bulls haven’t been the most consistent team in these spots, but their 21-19-1 ATS record in home games is decent enough to back.

Plus, Chicago has been playing some of its best basketball down the stretch to secure this date with Miami. The Bulls won six of their last seven regular-season showdowns, including a 119-111 victory over Miami one week ago. Most our our best sports betting apps list Chicago at -1.5, so we like FanDuel's line at -1.

🔢 Best Chicago Bulls spread odds: -114 via FanDuel

🔥Tyler Herro Over 24.5 points ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Though his season scoring average (23.9) falls below this mark, Herro has cleared this scoring line in six of his past eight games. That includes a good showing in a losing effort last week against Chicago while pouring in 30 points.

The Bulls have given up plenty of scoring to opposing point guards this season, allowing 25.6 points per game to the position. The Miami offense should flow through Herro in this contest.

🔢 Tyler Herro player prop bet odds: -115 via DraftKings

🔥 Bam Adebayo Under 9.5 rebounds ⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Bulls allow 54.5 rebounds per game, the second-most in the NBA. So it doesn’t really make sense that Bam Adebayo should struggle on the glass in this matchup. But we’re following the trends, as Bam has accumulated rebounding totals of only 6, 6, and 8 against Chicago this season.

His season average is 9.6 per game, so he’s more than capable of reaching double digits. But since we like the Bulls in the contest, let's bank on Nikola Vucevic and other Chicago bigs limiting Adebayo’s board efficiency once again, just as they have previously this season.

This pick goes against the odds, too, with the Under getting plus money at several of our best sportsbooks. It therefore juices up our parlay nicely.

🔢 Bam Adebayo player prop bet odds: +105 via DraftKings
