Even though NFL betting will be the main course on the menu this weekend, check out this intriguing NBA betting matchup between Cleveland and the Los Angeles Clippers, who have surprised some sportsbook players this season.

Cavaliers vs Clippers odds – Saturday, January 16, 10:30 PM ET

The Cavaliers were stunned by a late three in a loss to Utah on Thursday, so you know they’ll be hungry to come out and play on Saturday. LeBron James should be headed for another MVP award if he keeps putting up huge numbers, and the King has averaged 34.4 points, 8.0 boards and 8.0 assists in his last five games.

The Clippers had lost two straight games before playing the Lakers on Friday, but prior to that, they had a four-game winning streak. Baron Davis has been playing well, averaging 19.4 points and 10.2 assists in his last five games.

The Cavs will probably be favored on the road with eight wins in their last nine meetings with the Clippers, who have to face Cleveland and the Lakers in back-to-back nights. The Clippers are 4-4 in the second half of back-to-back games this year, but against the toughest teams in the league? It doesn’t look good.
