cleveland cavaliers 101 vs atlanta hawks 112
ANALYSIS
The Cavaliers travel to Atlanta to face the Hawks on Friday night for the second time this season. In the first game on November 21, the Cavs won 114-102.
Cleveland looks to continue their magical season on Friday night. Coming into the All-Star break, the Cavs were winners of seven of their last eight, and stood at fourth in the Eastern conference. Donovan Mitchell was one of the stars of the All-Star game on Sunday night, scoring 40 points while shooting 15-25 from the field. Mitchell is averaging 27.3 points and 1.5 steals per game.
The Hawks are a game under .500 at 29-30, standing at eighth in the Eastern conference. After trading for Dejounte Murray last off-season, Atlanta would’ve liked to be in a better position than they are in right now, especially after a relatively disappointing season last year where they were eliminated in the play-in tournament after making the Eastern conference finals the year prior.
