The Cavs are back in action tonight.
Good morning, it’s Wednesday, December 17. The Cleveland Cavaliers are still 15-12. They play today on the road against the Chicago Bulls. Let’s look ahead at today’s slate of NBA games.
Today’s game of the day
- Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Chicago Bulls – 8 PM, NBA League Pass, FanDuel Sports Network
Well, we might as well focus on this one.
The Cavs are sliding backwards and quickly. They’ve dropped two of their last three games, picking up their only win in a narrow finish over the Washington Wizards. Their two losses were at the hands of a Charlotte Hornets team and a version of the Golden State Warriors that didn’t feature Stephen Curry, Jimmy Butler or Draymond Green.
That isn’t good.
Cleveland is begging for some optimism. And while the Bulls aren’t a lofty opponent (they’ve only won one game since Thanksgiving), the Cavs could use this win as a reason to feel good. Or, at the very least, a win here would help them stop the bleeding.
The rest of the NBA slate
- Memphis Grizzlies vs Minnesota Timberwolves – 8 PM
There are only two games on tonight, and both of them begin at 8 pm. Weird choice, NBA.
