Miami Heat vs Washington-wizards Picks and Predictions April 13th 2025

Heat Aim to Build Momentum Ahead of Play-In Clash vs. Wizards

The Miami Heat may already be locked into the No. 10 seed in the Eastern Conference, but Sunday’s regular-season finale still offers one final tune-up before the real pressure hits.

Miami (37-44) will host the Washington Wizards in a game that means everything for playoff preparation—and potentially everything for the Wizards’ lottery positioning.

The Heat are coming off their most dominant performance of the year, a 153-104 blowout win over the Pelicans on Friday. Bam Adebayo posted a double-double, and Tyler Herro continued to show why he’s the offensive engine for this team.

Despite being locked into 10th, the Heat are not taking things lightly. They’ll face the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday in a win-or-go-home play-in game, a matchup in which they’re 0-3 this season.

Miami will rely heavily on Herro’s 23.9 points and 5.5 assists per game, and Adebayo’s all-around excellence. Since joining via trade, Andrew Wiggins has added 19 points per contest, giving Miami a needed third scoring punch.

Washington (17-64), meanwhile, is at the opposite end of the spectrum. Tied with Utah for the league’s worst record, the Wizards could secure top lottery odds with a loss and a Jazz win.

Jordan Poole leads the Wizards with a career-best 20.5 points per game, while rookie Alex Sarr continues to show promise with 13 points and 6.5 boards a night.
