The New York Knicks travel to Cleveland to take on a good Cavaliers squad. Unfortunately for the Knicks, they are dealing with a lot of injuries this season which will impact their play in this game. I believe the Cavs will dominate today and get it done at home.

New York Knicks vs. Cleveland Cavaliers Prediction
The New York Knicks are 1-4 against the spread in their last five games, one of which being a one point favorite against the Philadelphia 76ers in which they pulled through and won. The Knicks will be without Julius Randle and OG Anunoby who have been dealing with injuries which has been hurting the teams record, and Jalen Brunson hasn't been playing his best of recent without them either. In their last matchup against the Golden State Warriors they lost 110-99 while Brunson went 11-25 while putting up only 27 points.
Donovan Mitchell and the Cavaliers on the other hand have't been dominating teams like they should be either. They are also 1-4 against the spread in their last five games, two of which are coming from losses as the favorites. While this might not look very promising to back up this pick, I figured it would be good to mention.
The injuries for the Knicks just haven't done them any favors and the only way I see this spread being covered by them is if Brunson absolutely takes over the game and has an insane 40+ point game. They also almost, and should have lost to the Detroit Pistons on Monday. I will be taking the Cavs to cover the spread of -4.5 at home and think this is a juicy line that's too good to pass up.
