Cleveland at Milwaukee

Premium Pick

The Cleveland Cavaliers have a long way to go to get back to the level they were with LeBron James in the fold. That being said, they are certainly far ahead of the pace the Milwaukee Bucks are on. Milwaukee faced a struggling Indiana team at home that sat all five starters, and lost to their second team. Ouch! The Cavs were just eliminated from the playoffs race on Wednesday, so this team is a lot closer than most would think, and a good draft could elevate this team into contention next year. Milwaukee is not even in the playoffs picture, winning just 14 games all season. The Bucks have lost 64 times on the season, and 57 of those losses have come by 5 points or more. The Cavaliers own a 10-5-1 ATS mark vs. a team below .350 this season, as well as 6-2 ATS vs. a team below .300. Back the Cavaliers.
