Randy’s Pick

The Cleveland Cavaliers continue to be hit or miss, and they've been underachievers up to this point if we're being honest. The Cavs are also 3-6 ATS this season. The Sacramento Kings are still down their best player in De’Aaron Fox, but they continue to tread water and there are other guys on this team who can contribute at a respectable level. The Cavs have been a bit underwhelming, and I'm not excited to back them on the road. Near pick em spot, I'm going to lay the point with the Kings at home.
