Lakers vs Cavaliers Prediction, Odds, and Player Props

Anthony Davis, LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers are on an East Coast trip. They are playing in their hometown against Donovan Mitchell, Darius Garland and Cleveland Cavaliers. LeBron is in the twilight of his career and this may be one of the last times he plays in his hometown gym. The Lakers have been on a great run recently, winning 5 of their last 6 games. Donovan has been playing well for the Cavs, and Jarrett Allen may play a part in this game.

Allen is not 100% and won't play a full compliment of minutes. Anthony Davis is almost unguardable right now. If he continues to play like this, Davis could be in the MVP conversation late in season. Lakers are on the road against one of the best teams in East.

Anthony Davis is playing against the Cavaliers.

Lakers are playing against Cavaliers tonight. Davis is on another level right now. He has hit 30+ points in 6 of his last 9 games.

Russell Westbrook has been playing much better basketball coming off the bench for the Lakers the past 5 games. Russ has 10+ assists in 2 straight games and in the matchup with the Cavs earlier this season, he had 10 as well.

12+ assists is the favorite number for the Lakers vs Cavaliers. I host a Twitter Spaces every Thursday evening and Sunday morning to go over the slate and discuss the games.
