NYK vs MIA Dream11 Team Prediction, NBA Regular Season: NYK vs MIA Dream11 Basketball Match Season match-up: The New York Knicks are entering this game after defeating the Portland Trailblazers by 11 points in the home fixture, where Julius Randle collected 22 points and 11 rebounds. On the other hand, the Miami Heat will come into this game after beating the Washington Wizards by more than 25 points behind a 25 points night by Kendrick Nunn. The New York Knicks have started the season on a tough note but have some pieces around which they can build their future. Julius Randle has been one of the most productive players at the Power Forward average 20+ PPG and 10+ RPG showcasing his talent as the grinding big man in the League. The Knicks still have a shot at making the playoffs this season as East seems to be open for the team that is below the .500 mark this season.
Meanwhile, the Miami Heat have struggled too with Jimmy Butler coming in and out of the squad, they don’t look like the team that went to the NBA Finals last year and it is clear that the road will be tougher this year as teams like Brooklyn Nets and Philadelphia 76ers have shored up their reserves. The Heat have been lucky to have Bam Adebayo, whose all-around skills have mostly carried the team this season. This game is crucial for both the teams to construct a rhythm and establish some form of win-streak to improve their chances of getting in the Playoffs bracket.

NYK vs MIA Dream11 Match Prediction
The Miami Heat are shorthanded at multiple positions and the loss of Dragic and Bradley has caused disruption to their gameplan. The Heat has been plagued by injuries and has been unable to put together consistent performances. Meanwhile, the Knicks have been garnering some confidence and their mainstay Julius Randle has formed a great combination with young R.J. Barrett. The Knicks are surprisingly placed 6th in the NBA Eastern Conference but they can get far from comfortable because 2/3 of the season still remains and squads like Miami Heat can make up for the poor record in that time. This game will depend upon the response of Heat to Julius Randle, who gives the Knicks a lot of fuel at the big Forward position. The Knicks might have a little edge considering that Heat is shorthanded but they should watch out for Kendrick Nunn who has shown resilience this season.
