Charles Oakley to attend Knicks-Cavaliers game in Cleveland

Charles Oakley told ESPN's Jeff Goodman that will attend the Knicks-Cavaliers game in Cleveland on Thursday.

"Oak will be in his hometown of Cleveland," Oakley's spokesman Akhtar Farzaie said. "When in Cleveland, he always tried to attend a Cavs game."

Oakley, who played 10 seasons for the Knicks, was ejected from Madison Square Garden and arrested on assault charges on Feb. 9. Oakley denied any wrongdoing and said he was ejected at the request of Knicks owner James Dolan, while the Knicks released a statement accusing Oakley of abusive behavior and suggesting he get help.
