Smart Game Analysis
Cleveland Cavaliers has a 78% chance of winning the game
The Cavaliers are poised to dominate a depleted Clippers roster that is missing its entire offensive core due to the James Harden trade and Kawhi Leonard's absence.
Key Analysis
- • The Clippers are without James Harden (traded to Cleveland) and Darius Garland (toe injury), leaving them with a severe lack of playmaking.
- • Kawhi Leonard is listed as out for injury management, stripping Los Angeles of its primary scorer and best defender.
- • Norman Powell is no longer on the roster (playing for Miami), further depleting the Clippers' offensive options.
- • Donovan Mitchell is in elite form, averaging nearly 30 points per game over his last 7 contests.
- • Jarrett Allen is coming off a massive 40-point performance and has the size to neutralize Ivica Zubac in the paint.
- • Cleveland has won 6 of its last 7 games, showing significantly better form than the rebuilding Clippers.
