Result:
LOSS

Cleveland and LeBron head out on the road, where they are a strong 6-3 this season. The Cavaliers have overcome a slow start to surge to the top of the Central Division. The Cavs have solved some of their early-season issues as they rallied from a 14-point deficit to edge Eastern Conference-leading Toronto 105-101 on Tuesday for their eighth straight victory. A big reason for Cleveland's improvement has been the increased role for power forward Kevin Love (17.4 points, 10 rebounds), who has recorded double-doubles in five of the past six games. Oklahoma City still has work to do with Kevin Durant finally back. They are off a win, but the Thunder are 2-6 ATS following a victory. Oklahoma City is 3-11 ATS vs. the Eastern Conference and 1-10 ATS after scoring 100 points or more in their previous game. James averages 29.4 points in 20 regular-season meetings with the Thunder while Kyrie Irving has topped 30 points in each of his past two games against Oklahoma City. Cleveland is 4-1 ATS against OKC and the underdog is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. Play on Cleveland.
