What to Know

The San Antonio Spurs need to shore up a defense that is allowing 122.75 points per game before their contest Monday. They are on the road again Monday and play against the Cleveland Cavaliers at 7 p.m. ET Feb. 13 at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse. Cleveland will be strutting in after a victory while the Spurs will be stumbling in from a loss.

This past Saturday, San Antonio lost to the Atlanta Hawks on the road by a decisive 125-106 margin. Shooting guard Malaki Branham had a pretty forgettable game, playing for 28 minutes with 4-for-15 shooting.

Meanwhile, Cleveland bagged a 97-89 win over the Chicago Bulls this past Saturday. It was another big night for Cleveland’s shooting guard Donovan Mitchell, who posted a double-double on 29 points and ten rebounds in addition to six assists.

San Antonio is the clear underdog, so they’re hoping it’s the size of the fight that determines this one. Those sticking with them against the spread have guts, to put it politely, as the team has let down bettors in their past 11 games.

San Antonio’s defeat took them down to 14-43 while Cleveland’s victory pulled them up to 37-22. If the Cavaliers want to win, they will need to focus on stopping the Spurs’ small forward Keldon Johnson, who had 25 points, and power forward Jeremy Sochan, who had 18 points and five assists along with nine boards. We’ll see whether or not they are up to the challenge.
