Tonight, the Cleveland Cavaliers return home to Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse to host the Charlotte Hornets. Last time out Cleveland lost on the road to the Milwaukee Bucks 113-98. Charlotte, meanwhile, lost on Wednesday 125-113 to the Indiana Pacers.
The loss to the Pacers stings but the more noteworthy loss for the Hornets is losing LaMelo Ball, who reaggravated a right ankle sprain. To be frank, Charlotte isn’t very good and this should be a winnable game for Cleveland, similar to how they molly-whopped the Detroit Pistons a few nights ago.
