Cavaliers vs. Knicks Prediction

The Cavaliers have endured a hit-and-miss January thus far. They enjoyed a three-game winning streak to start the month off before going 4-5 in the games since. On offense, the team has been passable for the most part. Donovan Mitchell is averaging 28.4 points per game.

It's defense where the Cleveland outfit really shines. They're surrendering an average of 107.2 points per game, which is currently the lowest in the league.

The Knicks, meanwhile, have been led by Julius Randle on offense. The veteran power forward is averaging 24.4 points per game. Jalen Brunson and RJ Barrett have also been strong in this regard this season. Mitchell Robinson's absence does not bode well for the New York outfit tonight.

Overall, despite their topsy-turvy run of late, the Cavaliers' first-class defense should be enough to keep the Knicks at bay tonight.

Prediction: Cavaliers -3 (-110)
