Kings vs. Cavaliers Game Predictions
Take the Cleveland Cavaliers ATS and their Moneyline. The Cavs are red-hot, winning 9 of their last 10, including the longest current streak in the NBA with 5 consecutive wins. The Kings are looking to end Clevelands streak, but Sacramento will have a tough time stopping Donovan Mitchell. The Kings don’t have a great defense, allowing 118.9 opponents points per game over their last 10, and Donovan Mitchell will take full advantage of the favorable matchup. Mitchell is averaging 28.2 points per game, and in his last 5 he recorded 32.2 points per game, and the Kings generous defense won’t provide much of a challenge.
Here are my picks for the Kings vs. Cavaliers Sunday night matchup:
Moneyline Pick: Cleveland Cavaliers (-225)
ATS Pick: Cleveland Cavaliers (-5.5)
O/U Pick: Under (232)
Score: Kings 112; Cavaliers 118
