  • The Cleveland Cavaliers (48-29 SU, 41-33-3 ATS) and New York Knicks (44-33, 43-32-2) tip off at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse on Friday. Cleveland is 10-3 in its last 13 games while New York has five wins in its last eight contests.

    The Cavs opened as the 5-point favorite at home with the total set at 221.5 points. Cleveland has won four of the last six meetings vs New York at home, while the UNDER is 4-1 in the last five matchups between the two teams.

    Latest Betting Notes: Knicks

    The Knicks picked up their second straight win on Wednesday with a 101-92 victory over the Miami Heat. Immanuel Quickley scored 24 points off the bench to lead all scorers while Quentin Grimes added 23 in the win.

    Julius Randle, New York’s top scorer this season, left Wednesday’s game with a sprained ankle and is ruled out for tonight’s contest. Luckily for the Knicks, Quickley has taken his game to a new level in March, averaging 20.1 points per game – his best month so far. The third-year guard has led New York in scoring in three straight contests.

    Latest Betting Notes: Cavaliers

    The Cavs had their four-game win streak ended Tuesday as they came up just short against the Atlanta Hawks in a 120-118 loss. Donovan Mitchell went off for 44 points, Darius Garland scored 27 and Evan Mobley (20 points, 15 rebounds) had a double-double in the loss.

    Mitchell has been deadly this month, averaging just under 30 points per game, while he, Garland and Mobley are combining for nearly 70 points. That trio will need to be great again as Jarrett Allen (groin) is likely going to miss his second straight game.

    Cavaliers Player Prop: Mitchell OVER 28.5 Points (-120)

    Outside of October when he averaged 32.2 points per game, Mitchell is having his most productive month of the season. The guard has scored 40 or more points four times in his last 12 outings while scoring 30-plus in three of his last four contests.

    Mitchell has enjoyed success against the Knicks as well, averaging 28.3 points in three contests vs New York this season, including a 38-point performance back on October 30.

    He has generated about 23 field-goal attempts per game in March – if he gets that many looks, he should be a lock to cash the OVER on 28.5 points.

    Knicks Player Prop: Brunson OVER 25.5 Points (-125)

    With Randle ruled out, pressure will be on several other players to step up and produce for the Knicks. Jalen Brunson had a quiet night against the Heat on Wednesday with just 12 points, but he’ll likely need to have a much stronger showing to get his Knicks a win against the Cavaliers.

    Outside of last game, Brunson has had a strong month, scoring just under 24 points per game. The point guard has scored 23 or more points in five of his last seven outings, so with a couple extra touches he should have a good shot at hitting the OVER on 25.5 points.
