by Lou Aguila | in NBA Picks
The Cleveland Cavaliers and the Los Angeles Lakers are set for an entertaining matinee matchup on Saturday, 3:30 pm US EST, at Crypto Arena.
The Lakers are trending at -5.5 (-105) at BetMGM, having won their last three games on their home floor.
The Cleveland Cavaliers:
The Cavaliers slide down to 2-1 on their current road trip after falling to the Phoenix Suns, 122-101, on April 3. Donovan Mitchell scored a team-high 24 points, while Evan Mobley and Jarret Allen contributed 20 points each in a losing effort.
Cleveland are currently jockeying for playoff position with the Orlando Magic and the New York Knicks. They are still in the hunt to secure a home-court advantage in the first round of the playoffs, especially if they win their last four games on their regular-season schedule.
The Los Angeles Lakers:
The Lakers wrapped up their six-game road trip with a 125-120 win over the Washington Wizards on April 3. Los Angeles started the game strong, building a 10-point lead at the end of the first quarter and they never looked back since then.
Anthony Davis starred with a monster double-double output. The Lakers star recorded 35 points and 18 rebounds in 38 minutes. LeBron James also delivered the goods for his team, posting 25 points, 7 rebounds and 9 assists.
