Phoenix is coming off an embarrassing loss to the lowly Philadelphia 76ers. However, this is a good spot for the Suns who would like to rebound from that performance. They are catching Cleveland at the right time, in a two-game tailspin after the Cavaliers had two ugly losses at Golden State and Portland. This is the third road game in four games for the Cavaliers, who have suddenly lost their shooting touch, making just 28-of-77 shots against the Trail Blazers and 30-of-95 versus the Warriors. Kevin Love was the leading scorer on Saturday with just 13 points while LeBron James added 12 points. Brandon Knight led the Suns with 21 points and Devin Booker added 19 points against the Sixers. Phoenix has covered the spread four of the last five meetings and the Cavaliers are 0-4 ATS when following a loss of 10-plus points. This is a big number to cover in light of the Cavs' recent shooting woes. Take the points on the Suns.
