Premium Pick

Cleveland will look to avoid elimination after hitting only six of 23 on 3-pointers in Sunday's loss, and Donovan Mitchell and Darius Garland are due to break out after shooting a combined 14-for-34 in Game 4. The Cavaliers have gone UNDER six games in a row and they have allowed an average of just 98 points in the series, but now they have to get something going on the offensive end as well as getting more boards. However, Atlanta showed last night what a team is capable of when facing elimination and expect the Cavs to rise to the occasion. The UNDER is 5-1 with Cleveland playing on two days rest and the Cavaliers have gone UNDER six of seven following an ATS loss. Cleveland is 20-8-1 ATS its past 29 home games against opponents with winning road records. The four games in this series have stayed UNDER by an average of 19.3 points. Three picks on this game: Take the Cavs (Max Play), and the first-half UNDER (Max Play). Also play the full-game total to stay UNDER.
