Premium Pick

Cleveland comes off of a loss at Philadelphia that broke a four-game winning streak, but the Cavaliers are making a surprising run for the playoffs, and they are 34-21-2 ATS on the season. Compare that to 24-32 ATS for the Hawks, who have been inconsistent all year. Atlanta lost at Boston on Sunday for its fifth defeat in seven games, and the Hawks shot just 36.5% against the Celtics. The teams have split two meetings this season, and the Cavs will look to avenge a three-point loss in the rematch. Cleveland has covered seven of the last nine meetings. The Cavaliers are also 10-4 ATS their past 14 as underdogs and 25-10 ATS overall when playing with two days rest. The Hawks are 3-13 ATS versus teams with .600 or higher winning percentages. Take the Cavaliers for a Max Play.
