The Miami Heat (37-45) take on the Chicago Bulls (39-43) in tonight's primetime NBA Play-In Tournament contest. Our Heat vs. Bulls player props believe Bam Adebayo will be one of the bright spots in tonight's game at the United Center in Chicago, which tips off at 7:30 p.m. ET (TNT).

Our best sports betting sites list the Bulls as 1.5-point betting favorites on the moneyline. The winner will advance to face the Atlanta Hawks on Friday, but will that be the hosts? Our Heat vs. Bulls prediction answers that very question.

Regardless, there is plenty of value on the player props market ahead of this monumental play-in tournament tie. Read on for our best bets for tonight's game.

๐Ÿ”ฅ Bam Adebayo Over 18.5 points (-115 via DraftKings) โญโญโญ

Adebayo averaged his fewest points per game this season since the 2019-20 campaign, but that's not scaring me off taking his Over here in this pivotal play-in tournament showdown.

The Heat lost to the Boston Celtics in five games in the first round of the playoffs last year, but Adebayo did his part by averaging 22.6 points on nearly 50% shooting. Jimmy Butler was out for that series, and he's now gone to the Golden State Warriors.

Adebayo has stepped up as a scorer since Butler's departure, averaging 21.2 points in February, 20.1 in March, and 23.8 in five April games. Additionally, we're getting a great number here, as all of our other best NBA betting sites have Adebayo's points total at 19.5. I would jump on this line at DraftKings before it moves.

๐Ÿ”ฅ Coby White Under 22.5 points (-105 via bet365) โญโญโญโญ

There are two different lines for White's points total, so this bet depends on whether you'd prefer to get the additional point or the higher expected value. This pick falls under the latter, as we sacrifice the point to get very tasty -105 odds on Under 22.5 points.

DraftKings also offers this same number, while Caesars and FanDuel offer Under 22.5 at -125 and -130, respectively. The only one of our best sports betting apps at 23.5 points - which matches Pinnacle's total - is BetMGM, and it offers the Under at -130.

Therefore, you can completely ignore the offerings at Caesars and FanDuel and make your choice between either DraftKings/bet365 or BetMGM. For what it's worth, a winning $10 wager on these odds would result in a profit of $9.52, while the same winning wager would result in a $7.69 profit at BetMGM.

๐Ÿ”ฅ Nikola Vucevic Over 3.5 assists (-115 via DraftKings) โญโญโญ

Vucevic averaged exactly 3.5 assists this season, but we saw him getting more involved as a passer in a small sample of April games. In those six contests, he averaged 4.8 dimes, and his usage rate skyrocketed as the Bulls battled to get in this spot.

If that trend continues in this first Play-In Tournament game, Vucevic should clear this total with ease. That's likely why we've seen an absurd amount of movement to the Over at Pinnacle, which features one of the most respected trading teams in the sports betting industry. It opened Over 3.5 assists at +128 and is now offering it at -140 after moving it as short as -149.

Some of our other best sportsbooks are already offering the Over at odds hovering around -130, so we're getting a good price at DraftKings.
