Smart Game Analysis
Cleveland Cavaliers has a 58% chance of winning the game
Despite missing key starters, the Cavaliers are favored to extend the Trail Blazers' four-game losing streak behind Donovan Mitchell's scoring and a more resilient defense.
Key Analysis
- • Cleveland is missing Darius Garland (toe) and Evan Mobley (calf), but Donovan Mitchell has stepped up with 25+ points in four straight games.
- • The Trail Blazers are in a slump, having lost four consecutive games and allowing 127 points in their recent blowout loss to the Knicks.
- • Portland's leading scorer Deni Avdija is questionable with a back strain, and point guard Scoot Henderson is out, which would severely hamper their offense.
- • Jarrett Allen is primed to control the paint and rebounding battle against a Blazers frontcourt missing Robert Williams.
- • The Cavaliers have won 4 of their last 5 games, demonstrating significantly better momentum than the struggling Blazers.
- • Portland must improve their perimeter defense after allowing high shooting percentages in recent losses to have a chance at an upset.
