Cleveland Cavaliers vs New York Knicks Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Joseph King | in NBA Predictions
The Cleveland Cavaliers play host to the New York Knicks for this Eastern Conference showdown at Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse on Tuesday night. This is a rematch of last season’s first round playoff matchup and the first shot that Cleveland has at revenge for their early exit. Overall, the Cavs had an extremely successful regular season last year as they secured the fourth seed in the East with a 51-31 record. They’ve experienced a slow start to the 2023/24 season with just one win and two losses from their first three appearances. To add to their struggles, Cleveland will be without a number of key players including Jarrett Allen and Darius Garland. Star player Donovan Mitchell sat out in the Cavs most recent game on Saturday, a 125-113 loss to the Pacers. However, he did participate in practice on Monday and with two days of full rest, we expect him to take part here despite being listed as questionable.
The Knicks are also off to a slow start after finishing fifth in the conference last season with a 47-35 record. New York is coming off their worst shooting performance of the young season in a 96-87 away loss to the Thunder on Saturday. The team managed to hit just 36.7% of their total shots and went seven for 37 from downtown. One of the biggest culprits for the Knicks poor shooting start overall has been star player Julius Randle. The two-time All-Star is shooting an anemic 27.7% from the field and 30% from three. Randle managed just 10 points in the team’s last appearance as the Knicks failed to have a single player break the 20 point mark.
