10* NBA Game of the Week
(NBA) Orlando vs. Cleveland,
Point Spread: -8.50 | -110.00 Cleveland (Home)
Result: Win
This is a matchup of two teams with different aspirations for this season. Orlando is trying to build a core with young guys in an effort to establish a fondation.
Cleveland has that young nucleus and made the big move to acquire Mitchell from Utah before the season started to give them a premiere scoring option in crunch time.
Donavan Mitchell has proven to be a go-to player in his first 3 gams as a Cav.
The Cavs are #1 in the NBA at +13 PPG thanks to a D that is #2 allowing under 104 PPG early in this season.
Magic #27 in points differential and should be the difference here tonight.
Orlando is a shell of itself with Wagner, Fultz and Suggs all out and they were 3 of LY top 6 scorers.
Cleveland has won two straight and seeing how Orlando has yet to get in the win column this season, I expect the Cavs to roll here tonight!
