The Cavaliers are coming into this game with a 22-17 record overall and they are 11-8 in their road games this season where they will be in this game. They have won 2 of their last 3 games and are coming into this one off of a win in their last game. Their last loss was against the Memphis Grizzlies while their 2 wins in that span came against the Indiana Pacers and the Portland Trail Blazers in their last game. They still have a game against the Golden State Warriors on Sunday night that needs to be played with that result still pending so this will be the 2nd leg of a back-to-back on Monday night for them. In their game against the Trail Blazers, Darius Garland led the team in points in that game with 26 while Evan Mobley was next on the team with 18 points. Garland also led the team in assists in that game with 6 while Jarrett Allen led the team in rebounds with 13. They were 48.8% from the field, 43.6% from 3-point range, and 65.5% from the free throw line with their shooting in that game.

The Kings are coming into this game with a 16-25 record overall and they are 10-13 in their home games this season where they will be in this game. Their last win was against the Miami Heat but they have gone on a 3 game losing streak since then with losses coming against the Los Angeles Lakers, the Atlanta Hawks, and the Denver Nuggets in their last game. They still have a game against the Portland Trail Blazers on Sunday that needs to be played first with that result still pending so this will be the 2nd leg of a back-to-back on Monday night for them. In their game against the Nuggets, De'Aaron Fox led the team in points in that game with 30 while Alex Len was next on the team off the bench with 18 points. Tyrese Haliburton led the team in assists in that game with 6 while Len led the team in rebounds with 10.

The Cavaliers are coming into this game as a 3.5 point favorite with the current betting odds according to the bookmakers. The Cavaliers have been playing well this season and have been a much better team than the Kings have been. The Kings have not been playing well coming into this game either and the Cavaliers have been getting healthier in their last few games after missing some players from their lineup. The Cavs are the better team and they have been playing well on the road this season. The Kings have not been playing well in recent games and they have a losing record at home this year. The best bet to place in this game is on the Cavaliers to cover the spread here as the Kings will continue to struggle in this game.
