Good morning, it’s Monday, January 26th. The Cleveland Cavaliers are 27-20 and play the Orlando Magic at home tonight at 7 PM. We wish you warmth and a clear driveway today.
Donovan Mitchell scored 36 points in the Cavaliers’ win over the Magic in Orlando on Saturday. Cleveland has now won 10 of their last 14 games and is back in the mix for the second seed of the Eastern Conference.
Today’s Game of the Day
- Portland Trail Blazers at Boston Celtics – 8 PM, Peacock
Let’s switch it up and talk about some different teams.
The Trail Blazers (23-23) and Celtics (28-17) are each having
better-than-expected seasons. Portland has been led by the breakout of Deni Avdija (who is listed as questionable for this matchup) while the Celtics have proven that sticking to a strong identity can lead to positive results, no matter who is in the rotation. This should be a fun one.
The Rest of the NBA Slate
- Indiana Pacers at Atlanta Hawks – 1:30 PM
- Philadelphia 76ers at Charlotte Hornets – 3 PM
- Orlando Magic at Cleveland Cavaliers – 7 PM
- Los Angeles Lakers at Chicago Bulls – 8 PM
- Memphis Grizzlies at Houston Rockets – 8 PM
