Last night, Charlotte ended a nine-game Under run. Unfortunately for them, it came in a 119-111 loss to Utah. The Hornets, who are without LaMelo Ball for the remainder of the season, are one of four teams in the league out of playoff contention.

Cleveland is top four in the East and has the second best scoring differential in the league. So, on paper, this should be an easy win for the Cavaliers. But they are coming off a 119-115 loss to Miami Friday night.

The Cavs played two straight in Miami, winning the first game. Now they’ll be in Charlotte for another couplet.

I’m expecting points in this one. That may seem strange with Cleveland leading the league in scoring defense and Charlotte being the top Under team. But we saw 230+ points in each team’s last game. This number is too low.

When these teams met back in November, it was a 132-122 final, won by Cleveland. And that was with the teams combining to go a horrid 22 of 73 from three. Take the Over here. 10*
