A basketball game will be played on Sunday afternoon when the New York Knicks (34-43) host the Cleveland Cavaliers (42-35). The slow-footed Cavs sit seventh in NBA Eastern Conference, have the league’s seventh-best defensive rating, and are 20th in offense. They are gearing up for their first post-season appearance since the 2017-18 season. The Knicks are making vacation plans.
The two teams last met in January, in a tight game won by the Cavs, 95-93. Kevin Love (aka Dorian Gray) led the Ohioans with 20 points.
