The Cleveland Cavaliers were considered long shots last June to win this season’s NBA title. It just shows how a roster upgrade, and the return of LeBron James can turn things around.
The Westgate SuperBook made the Cavaliers 9-4 favorites after Wednesday’s games were completed. The Golden State Warriors are a close second at 5-2. The defending champion San Antonio Spurs, at 4-1, are the only other team with single-digit odds at the SuperBook.
