Cleveland is dealing with the injury to LeBron, but some new players have been added with recent trades. J.R. Smith led all scorers with 27 points in his second game since being acquired from New York along with the injured Iman Shumpert. Cavs guard Kyrie Irving has scored 61 points in the last two games after sitting out Monday with lower back tightness. He's averaging 26.5 points in his last four on the road. They face a Sacramento team that is spiralling into oblivion, losing six of nine. They are on a 4-16-2 ATS run! The Kings have lost 16 of their last 22 for the West's second-worst record since Nov. 26th. They're giving up 104.2 points per game for one the NBA's worst marks. The Kings are 1-6-2 ATS in their last nine home games as well as 1-9-1 ATS against the Eastern Conference. When these teams meet, the road team is 6-2-1 ATS and the dog is 12-3-1 ATS. Play Cleveland.
