Cavaliers vs Lakers Prediction
The Los Angeles Lakers vs. the Cleveland Cavaliers will clash from Cleveland for some Tuesday night basketball. The Lakers come into this game playing some great basketball at the moment. The Lakers have won eight of their last 10 and come into tonight playing their best brand of basketball in the last couple of seasons. The main reason for their success as of late is Anthony Davis. Davis, who is a multiple-time all-star, has looked like an MVP this season. Davis enters play averaging 28.6 points per game and 12.8 rebounds.
Lebron James has slowed down a bit this season, but at the end of the day, he is still Lebron James, and Russell Westbrook has been very good in his role as of late. It appears that the Lakers have found their way. This game likely means more to Lebron James tonight, who is a native of Cleveland. We all know about his success with the Cavs, and he will be ready to go for this game tonight.

Cleveland comes in playing to the tune of a 15-9 record. The Cavs made a splash in the off-season when they landed star guard Donavan Mitchell. Mitchell has been as good as advertised this year, averaging 28.4 points per game. Cleveland has one of the best backcourts in basketball, with the combination of Mitchell and Darius Garland. Cleveland is looking to bounce back tonight after a loss on Sunday vs. the Knicks.
Cavaliers vs Lakers Pick
I am all over the Cavs in this spot tonight. I have had a good amount of success betting on the Lakers this year, but this feels like a great spot to fade them on the road. Los Angeles has been playing great as of late, but they are due for some regression, and I think that we will see it tonight. The way this line has moved also indicates that, and I am willing to trust the line here. Let’s stay red hot in the NBA and cash in!
