OKC vs MIA Dream11 Prediction: Oklahoma City Thunder vs Miami Heat Best Dream11 team for todays match as we help with Dream11

Climbing all the way into second place in the Eastern Conference of NBA 2019-20, for Miami Heat, this instalment of the marquee league has been an unprecedented one. They have galloped their way all the way into the annuls of the points tally, way exceeding the expectations accorded on their head by their vociferous supporters.
However, despite enduring such a pulsating season, the side know they need to massively address their form away from their home stadium. While they have the most sublime record infront of their own boisterous supporters with a 17-1 record, they have crumbled outside of it, wobbling their away to lopsided showings.
And in Oklahoma City Thunder, they have the ideal opposition to rake up a win with the seventh placed side in the Western Conference struggling to ingrain in place a set of meaningful results. They were defeated 130-121 by the Raptors the last time around, a side Miami Heat will be quietly confident of putting down as they look to stabilise a wavering period of results for themselves.
Probable Winner
Had Miami Heat been playing this one in their home stadium, the side would have found it way too easy to muster up a win in their favour. However, with the side playing in Oklahoma, this won’t be a straightforward win for Miami Heat but we envision them doing just about enough to scrape their way to a win on the day.

Dream 11 Picks
OKC vs MIA Dream11 Point Guard
With 6.5 apg, Chris Paul has controlled the centre of the court for his side with his quick ball rotations and ball movements to make the Oklahoma City Thunder point guard our pick in this ambit. If his side are to rake up a win on the day, he’ll be an integral component of the side’s gameplan, a player we envision pulling off a solid amount of layups and screen assists.
OKC vs MIA Dream11 Shooting Guard
He’s pulled off the 20.4 ppg and the 6.4 apg to go with them to see us make Jimmy Butler our first pick in this ambit of our Dream 11 component. Elsewhere, we have the one player coming in from Oklahoma City Thunder as well in the form of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, someone who leads the ranks of his side’s scorers with the 20 points per game in his kitty.
OKC vs MIA Dream11 Small Forward
Abdel Nader from Oklahoma City Thunder will be our side’s cheap pick for this encounter. He’s bound to only feature as a substitute for his encounter but the player is someone who comes bearing with him the ability to send down a good amount of triples in that time to see him become our pick for this one.
OKC vs MIA Dream11 Power Forward
James Johnson is going to earn a spot from Miami Heat in our side’s docket for the day. The player is someone who has a dual nature as a performer, someone capable of moving in unison in both the paints and pulling of both rebounds and points in the paint.
OKC vs MIA Dream11 Centre
The most heavily composed ambit of our Dream 11 side, we have the three players making a foray into our setup for this outing. We begin with Bam Adebayo from Miami Heat, someone who has recorded the 10.4 rebounds per game, to hammer down his spot as the side’s mainstay in defence.
He’s going to be partnered up with Meyers Leonard while from the opposition we’ll be wrapping up our component with the selection of Mike Muscala. The player has earned an elevated role as a performer off late for his side, one which has seen him accrue the second choice points and free throws for his outfit.
Star Player
Butler will represent our side as our star player.
