The Cleveland Cavaliers (22-18, 14-9 Home) will try to make it two in a row tonight when they host the Utah Jazz (13-25, 4-13 Away). Tipoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. EST at Rocket Arena in Cleveland, OH, with coverage provided by NBA League Pass.

Cleveland last played on Saturday, hosting the Minnesota Timberwolves, a couple of days after the T-wolves hosted them in Minneapolis. The Cavs lost in a high-scoring game in Minneapolis, 131-122. But they avenged the loss by beating them back in Cleveland Saturday, 146-134. It was their fifth win in their last seven games. As for Utah, the Jazz are kicking off a five-game road trip with the first game in Cleveland. They’ll be looking to do two things: erase the memory of their last embarrassing home loss and bounce back from going 0-4 on their last road trip. In their last game on Saturday, the Jazz were thoroughly beaten by the Charlotte Hornets, 150-95 (were down by 47 at the half). On their last road trip, they lost by 17 to the Clippers, by 9 to Golden State, by 20 to Portland, and by 4 to Oklahoma City in OT.

Our Cleveland Cavaliers vs Utah Jazz Prediction

Utah averages 119.6 per game but is currently ranking last in the league in defense (127.3 ppg allowed) after the disaster vs. Charlotte. Cleveland’s defense isn’t anything special (117.6 ppg allowed), but they have a top ten offense (119.3 ppg). The TOTAL for this game is pretty high, but the final score will probably be higher.

Our Utah vs. Cleveland Pick: OVER 250.5
