The Cavaliers have won four straight, their second-longest winning streak of the last five seasons.
To keep that going, there’s a chance they’ll have to play without a fully healthy LeBron James against the Nuggets tonight.
Jason Lloyd of the Akron Beacon Journal:
Announcement: Pro Basketball Talk’s partner FanDuel is hosting a one-day $125,000 Fantasy Basketball league for Monday’s NBA games. It’s $25 to join and first prize is $15,000. Starts at 7pm ET on Monday. Here’s the FanDuel link.
Cleveland has outscored opponents with LeBron on and off the court this season. Obviously, though, he helps.
However, if there’s a game this week the Cavaliers can afford LeBron to miss or play limited minutes, it’s this one against 2-7 Denver. Cleveland follows tonight’s contest vs. Spurs, at Wizards, vs. Raptors – teams with a combined 20-8 record.
