Down by as much as 13 points against the Rockets, the Cavs found a defensive spark in their zone-based scheme from big man Jarrett Allen.

I am ready for it, and I am just going to fight,” Rockets center Alperen Sengun says of physical play from opponents like Cleveland’s Jarrett Allen.

Donovan Mitchell had 34 points, Evan Mobley had 22 points and 15 rebounds, and the Cavaliers led wire-to-wire in a win over the Miami Heat Wednesday.

Jarrett Allen's rebound Over looks awfully appetizing on this Friday night based on the matchup with the Sixers and the injury situation in Cleveland. That and more in Andrew Caley's three-pack of NBA props for this evening.

After a brutal three-game road trip, the Sixers will return home on Friday night as losers of seven contests in a row. Things will not get any easier, as they will face the Eastern Conference-best Cleveland Cavaliers, who trashed the Sixers in Cleveland last month.

The NBA All-Star reserves will be revealed Thursday, and Cunningham should be the first Pistons player to be selected since Blake Griffin earned the honor in 2019. He’d also be the first Detroit guard to earn an All-Star bid since Hall of Famer Allen Iverson in 2009. So what makes Cunningham an All-Star?

The Cleveland Cavs learned they have an All-Star starter. Will their wish for the other members of the core four to join Donovan Mitchell be granted?

Darius Garland scored 22 points, Donovan Mitchell added 21 and the Cleveland Cavaliers snapped a season-high, three-game losing streak with a 110-91 win over the Detroit Pistons.

The depleted 76ers' season is spiraling out of control, and the last thing they need is a matchup with the class of the conference in the Cavaliers. Look for Cleveland to keep Philly's offense contained.

Recent reports indicate that the Cleveland Cavaliers are targeting an NBA star to improve their starting five ahead of the trade deadline.

Although the Cavs were without Evan Mobley in their recent win against the Suns, they were able to find a spark from Tristan Thompson.

Cleveland; Monday, 7 p.m. EST BOTTOM LINE: Cleveland enters the matchup against Detroit after losing three in a row. The Cavaliers are 7-1 against division opponents. Cleveland ranks sixth in the Eastern Conference with 33.
