Cleveland at Charlotte

Premium Pick

The Cleveland Cavaliers will be without LeBron James for the next two weeks as he tries to get his back and knees healthy instead of fighting through the injuries. The Cavs have not been as good as advertised, but neither have the Charlotte Hornets. Charlotte was a playoff team last year that is off to a horrific 10-23 start to their season. This sure looks like an over adjustment against the Cavs without LeBron, as Charlotte has lost their way again, having dropped each of their last four games. The Cavs are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 on the road vs. a team with a losing home record. The Hornets come in at 3-12-2 ATS in their last 17 games following a loss. Play on Cleveland.
