Cleveland Cavaliers vs Milwaukee Bucks Prediction

The Cleveland Cavaliers looked absolutely terrible in their summer league opener, and while it’s just one game, it’s enough to make me not want to lay points with them in their next effort. Yes, the Milwaukee Bucks had their issues as well, but they at least showed effort defensively, and that’s more than we can say for the Cavs. Also, you can argue the Bucks will have the best player on the floor in terms of NBA experience in Beauchamp, and he played well in the Bucks opener. I’ll take my chances with the Bucks and the free points.
