This is the first meeting of the season and Cleveland has a great opportunity to snap a two-game losing streak as the Suns have lost five in a row and 15 of their last 16 games. Phoenix is home after completing an 0-4 road swing, including a 122-115 loss at Charlotte on Saturday when the Suns were outscored 43-28 in the fourth quarter. Dwight Howard and Nicolas Batum combined for 59 points for the Hornets, who shot 50.6 percent. Phoenix allows 113.5 points per game and a .473 field goal percentage. The Cavaliers had won two straight before losing to the Clippers and Lakers, but the Suns are 0-8 ATS their last eight games following an ATS win and just 1-4 ATS their last five home contests. Also, Phoenix is 4-10 ATS its last 14 after scoring at least 100 points its previous game. Look for Cleveland to get back on track with the win and cover and play the Cavaliers.
