With Darius Garland and Evan Mobley healthy, it’s no surprise to see NBA betting markets price the Cleveland Cavaliers as hefty favourites on the road against the San Antonio Spurs on Saturday night. Cleveland are gunning for a top-three seed in the Eastern Conference, while the Spurs are destined for the depths of the lottery despite drafting Victor Wembanyama first overall last year.

In this article:
The Spurs have been awful at home this season, winning just 5 of their 25 games. They have covered the spread in 12 of those games, but they are playing against one of the hottest teams in the NBA right now, and we don’t expect them to be able to keep up tonight. Their offence has ranked 23rd in the league over the last 5 games and they have only been averaging 100 points per game. The Spurs commit a lot of turnovers per game with an average of 15 and their field goal percentage leaves a lot to be desired at 46.2% (25th in the NBA) and just 34.3% beyond the arc (30th in the NBA).
The Cavs have been on fire recently, winning 9 of their last 10 games and they are now on a 4-game winning streak. They are the 6th-best defence in the NBA over the last 5 games with a rating of 111.2. That said, the Cavs have only averaged 113 points per game on the road this year, and their recent 108-point outing against the Grizzlies is a sign for caution. Expect them to get the win but in a low-scoring game, going well under 230 total points.
