The Cleveland Cavaliers are coming off back-to-back losses, first a 99-92 setback at Golden State on Christmas Day followed by a 109-95 loss to Sacramento on Wednesday. They'll no doubt head into this contest angry and hungry for a win.

"Sometimes, when you're winning as much as you're winning, you have slippage," Cleveland guard Dwyane Wade told reporters. "We've had some slippage, and we've got to figure out a way to nip it in the bud before it becomes: 'We in a rut, and we've got to get ourselves back out of it.'" As a bonus we can note that today is LeBron James' 33rd birthday, and you better believe the team wants to celebrate him with a victory.

I think the Cavs will bounce back against a Utah side that took a 126-101 loss at Golden State on Wednesday. The Jazz have now lost three in a row and 10 of their last 12.

My selection is an 8* play on Cleveland Cavaliers.
