Cleveland Cavaliers

Picks

I'm surprised to see the Cavaliers trading at just 52%, especially given where this game falls on the preseason schedule. Cleveland's trip to the Middle East was canceled, leaving the Cavaliers with just three preseason games. This is their third and final tune-up before the regular season, while the Orlando Magic still face the Miami Heat on Friday. I expect Kenny Atkinson to ramp up his starters' minutes with the regular season approaching. Sean Sweeney has less incentive to do the same with Orlando playing again Friday. If Cleveland's starters see more court time, the Cavaliers' win probability should be higher than the current 52% market price.
