Premium Pick

The Magic have been an awful road team all season but the spread tends to even things out over time. The worm may be turning as they are 3-2 ATS over their last five games. Cleveland is rolling right now and it's time to fade away. They ahve won five straight straight-up and against the number. Buy low and sell high. Cleveland's offfense is clicking right now but their defense has been suspect all season (allowing 101.7 per game). In the role of a favorite this season, the Cavs are just 5-14 ATS. Take the points. Also take the OVER. Orlando is 21-10 OVER the past two seasons after a close loss by 6 points or less. They are also 15-5 OVER the past three seasons after a game as a road favorite. Cleveland is 11-3 to the OVER in their last 14 games vs. losing teams. Go with Orlando and the OVER here.

1 unit on Orlando +6.5 (-115) (risk 1 to return 1.87)
