Result:
LOSS

Cleveland had a horrible shooting day in its 89-83 loss at Golden State on Christmas Day, shooting just 41.0 percent from the field, and only 5-of-30 from beyond the arc. LeBron James scored 25 points, but he was just 10-of-26 from the floor. The Cavaliers will try to make amends tonight after beating Houston 91-77 on Friday for their ninth win in their last 10 games. James scored 19 points against the Rockets, but Kyrie Irving was the star with 23 points, and the Cavs held Houston to a .351 field goal percentage and James Harden to just 2-of-10 form the field. Golden State comes off a rare loss as the Warriors were pounded by Detroit 115-93 on Saturday while shooting only 36.2 percent overall. Stephen Curry had 38 points and Klay Thompson added 24 points, but it wasn't enough to stop the Pistons, who had six double figure scorers. The Warriors now are 0-4-1 ATS against winning teams and 0-8 ATS with one day of rest. Cleveland just finished a 5-1 road trip, and the Cavaliers are 5-1 ATS following a trip of seven or more days.  Play the Cavaliers.
