Game Prediction
This is a hard game to evaluate as starters for neither side is going to play much if at all. Regardless it’s hard to see the Charlotte Hornets keeping this one close even if for whatever reason they were to go at full force today. Even if the main horses for the Cleveland Cavaliers aren’t in I still like them to not only win but covered.
Final Pick
Cleveland Cavaliers -13 (-108)
