Cleveland at Orlando

Premium Pick

The Orlando Magic have been a struggling franchise and at 24-42 this season, they have a long way to go to become competitive. They have to do business with LeBron James who recorded his eighth triple-double on the season last time out. James has been the best player in the NBA for better than a decade, but he has never had eight triple-doubles in a season, so he is playing at a higher productive level in all facets of the game, even at what is generally considered an advanced age. Orlando will likely go without center Nikola Vucevic, and that means the lane is likely open for business for Irving, James, and company. This is not a place where Cleveland is likely to get tripped up, especially with Boston just 2.5 games behind. Make the play on Cleveland.
