What to Know
After three games on the road, the Cavaliers are heading back home. They will take on the Miami Heat at 7:00 p.m. ET on Wednesday. Coming in fresh off a win as the underdog, the Cavaliers will stroll into this one as the favorite.
Last Monday, the Cavaliers’ game was all tied up 54-54 at the half, but luckily for them it didn’t stay that way. They secured a 108-103 W over Indiana. The victory came about thanks to a strong surge starting at the 7:38 mark of the second quarter, when the Cavaliers were facing a 47-32 deficit.
The Cavaliers’ success was spearheaded by the efforts of Jarrett Allen, who almost dropped a double-double on 23 points and nine rebounds, and Caris LeVert, who dropped a double-double on 23 points and 11 assists. Allen didn’t help the Cavaliers’ cause all that much against the Rockets on Saturday but the same can’t be said for this contest.
Meanwhile, the defenses reigned supreme when the Heat and the 76ers played on Monday, rewarding bettors who took the risk on the low 206-point over/under. Miami took a 98-91 hit to the loss column at the hands of the 76ers.
Despite the loss, the Heat got a solid performance out of Bam Adebayo, who dropped a double-double on 20 points and 13 rebounds.
Cleveland’s win bumped their record up to 43-25. As for Miami, their defeat dropped their record down to 37-31.
This contest is one where the number of possessions is likely to be a big factor: The Cavaliers haven’t given up the ball easily this season, having only averaged 12.6 turnovers per game. However, it’s not like the Heat struggle in that department as they’ve been averaging only 12 turnovers per game. Given these competing strengths, it’ll be interesting to see how their clash plays out.
The Cavaliers were able to grind out a solid win over the Heat in their previous meeting back in December of 2023, winning 111-99. Do the Cavaliers have another victory up their sleeve, or will the Heat turn the tables on them? We’ll have the answer soon enough.
