The Milwaukee Bucks and Cleveland Cavaliers play in back-to-back games as the Cavs try to stay perfect on the season.
The Milwaukee Bucks and Cleveland Cavaliers are on completely different trajectories to start the season when they meet on Monday night. Both the Bucks and Cavaliers were supposed to duke it out for one of the top spots in the Eastern Conference with Boston this year. Cleveland has kept up its side of the bargain but Milwaukee must have missed the memo. The Bucks are 1-5 to start the season and have lost five games in a row after winning the season opener against Philadelphia. That has been their only road win and they are coming off a loss to the Cavaliers already when they faced off two nights ago on Saturday. That game was at home for Milwaukee in an incredibly close game which the Cavs won 114-113. Milwaukee lost despite the heroics of Damian Lillard who really turned it on scoring a game-high 41 points. The problem for Milwaukee is that Donovan Mitchell got the last laugh for the Cavaliers.

Mitchell scored 30 points in the win but there was no more a clutch shot in the game than the one he hit with just three-tenths of a second left on the clock. Mitchell hit a clutch jumper for two that proved to be the game winner. Milwaukee got the ball back and Lillard got the last shot of the game with a desperation three but it wasn’t in the cards.
Mitchell’s clutch bucket keeps the Cavaliers undefeated with a 7-0 record to start the season. Now Cleveland is heading home to take on their Central division rivals and the Cavaliers will be -7.5 favorites on Monday night.
