Playing to form, the Cavs lost on Monday at Sacto, as Cleveland continues to have failed to win back-to-back games all season. Relying on the Cavs to carry a number this high on the road might be a big ask, too, especially as the Blazers are at least competitive most nights, even if they are on a 4-game losing streak. Portland ran out of gas in the 4th Q on Monday at Utah, but are usually within earshot most nights thanks to Jerami Grant (23.1 ppg) and Shaedon Sharpe (19.5 ppg) more than pulling their weight for Chauncey Billups.

The Cavaliers have grown accustomed to playing without Darius Garland this season. Evan Mobley is a good passer for a big man, so Garland being out again Wednesday should put the ball in his hands more. When Garland missed four games previously, Mobley had at least two turnovers in each of them. In total, Mobley has turned the ball over at least two times in eight of 10 games this season.
