Cleveland Cavaliers (59-15) versus New York Knicks (46-27) is a high-stakes Eastern Conference game on Wednesday night at the Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse. The Cavaliers have seen their usual standards drop slightly in recent matches, losing five of their last 10 assignments. They lost by 10 points to the Pistons in their previous assignment and will play the Clippers before hosting New York. This poor form has seen Boston close the gap on top of the standings to only four points.
New York Knicks, on the other hand, recently secured their postseason qualification spot following their 11-point win over the Bucks. The Knicks have a heavy schedule coming up, hosting the Trail Blazers on Sunday before playing the struggling 76ers. Tom Thibodeau and his men will want to head into the postseason with a winning momentum, and a win against the Cavs could lay the foundation for that. They are the betting underdogs in this matchup.

Our New York Knicks vs Cleveland Cavaliers Prediction
Both teams are under minimal pressure to win their remaining matches this season. However, heading into the postseason in a winning form could be key in determining the eventual champions. The Cavaliers are also under pressure from the red-hot Boston to lock up their No. 1 seed in the conference, meaning they must find their winning form soon. The Knicks, meanwhile, will want to prove that they are the real deal this season, and a win against the Cavaliers could send a statement to their rivals. Still, they could fall short of a win in this matchup. Our prediction for Cleveland Cavaliers vs New York Knicks: Cleveland Cavaliers to win.
