Los Angeles Lakers vs Cleveland Cavaliers Prediction & Picks - NBA
by Lou Aguila | in NBA Picks
The Los Angeles Lakers look to bounce back from their first season loss as they visit the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday at Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse. The Lakers absorbed their first defeat in the 2024-25 NBA season after falling to Kevin Durant and the Phoenix Suns, 109-105. Anthony Davis continues to put up monster numbers, racking up 29 points and 15 rebounds in a losing effort vs. Phoenix. After posting a triple-double against Sacramento, LeBron James was held down to 11 points on 215 percent shooting. On the other hand, the Cavaliers have stormed to a 4-0 start and recently defeated the reloaded New York Knicks 110-104. The Knicks had no answer to the Cavs backcourt duo of Darius Garland and Donovan Mitchell, who combined for 64 points. Cleveland is the No.3 offensive team in terms of points per game (123.5) through four games, trailing only the Golden State Warriors (123.7) and the Boston Celtics (124.3).
