Cleveland is ecstatic to be back home following a disastrous five-game trip, and the Cavaliers get to play the Nuggets, who are 0-5 ATS their last five road games and 1-5 ATS their last six against teams with losing records. Also, Denver has covered just once its last five games as a favorite. The Nuggets come off two losses at Boston and Washington, and the one against the Wizards was especially tough as Bradley Beal hit two free throws with 0.1 seconds left to win it. Cleveland has been off since Monday while Denver is playing its third game in four nights, so don't expect the Nuggets to shoot 60% from the field as they did in their victory in the last meeting on Feb. 10. Take the points with the Cavaliers.
