Cleveland\u2019s perimeter play and production off the pine are a big edge as this series swings to Game 2 tonight.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.covers.com\/sport\/basketball\/nba\/players\/222704\/evan-mobley\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Evan Mobley<\/a> needed just three quarters to top his scoring prop in Game 1 before taking it easy in the fourth. His points prop remains the same, but his involvement in the offense will spike tonight, with him logging more minutes but also making the most of his matchups in the pick-and-roll attack. His projections sit at 18+ points.<\/p>\n<p>The Raptors need to produce more from beyond the arc if they\u2019re going to trade blows with Cleveland. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.covers.com\/sport\/basketball\/nba\/players\/5536\/brandon-ingram\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Brandon Ingram<\/a> missed his only 3-point attempt in Game 1 but is one of the Raptors\u2019 more consistent outside threats. Projections have him hitting two triples in Game 2.<\/p>\n<p>Odds are correct at the time of publishing and are subject to change.<br \/>Not intended for use in MA.<br \/>Affiliate Disclosure: Our team of experts has thoroughly researched and handpicked each product that appears on our website.
