Like the over. love the first half over. No Okoro for Cleveland means more offense. Both teams play at a pace that projects over the total. This number is on the rise so grab now

Donovan Mitchell was a late scratch on Tuesday for the Cavs, but he had not been scoring to previous levels in the past week after returning from his second extended absence of March. Cleveland is proving it can function well enough with no or a reduced version of Mitchell, whipping he Jazz last night 129-113 and continuing a recent "over" trend (six straight and eight of ten, without much help from Mitchell even when he's been available). Three starters still scored 21-plus, led by Caris LeVert's 26 points, as the Cavs shot a sizzling 54% from the floor. Trendlines are also pointing "over" for Phoenix, especially with Devin Booker off of a 52-point showcase vs. the Pelicans. Play Cavs-Suns "Over"

Phoenix returns from a successful road trip where they fared well against some of the better teams in the NBA. Bradley Beal on the ball more at the point seems to be working for them and they are scoring plenty lately. PHX is 6-2 ATS last 8. They have covered their last 4 by at least 4 more points than the spread. CLE 1-6 ATS last 7 and 17-19-1 on road. Even with Donovan Mitchell back they seem disconnected and inconsistent and the Cavs on a team road trip having played at DEN Sun and Utah on Tues.
