The Cleveland Cavaliers are fresh off an important win against the Philadelphia 76ers.
They fought hard, played well, and definitively earned that victory, which is just another feather in their cap.
The team is now 14-8 and the third team in the East, looking like the playoff contenders they promised they’d be.

Friday night has a new challenge for them – but will it be much of a challenge at all?
The Cavaliers are set to play against the Orlando Magic – which is currently the worst team in the NBA.
The Cavaliers are obviously the favorite to win the match but that doesn’t mean that they are going to phone it in and not play hard.
Quite the opposite, in fact – the Cavaliers are going to again play their hearts out.
Not So Magical Season
The Magic are home to this season’s rookie, Paolo Banchero.
He has been electric so far, averaging 22.7 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 3.5 assists.
There is talk of him winning this season’s Rookie of the Year.
There are other great talents on the team too but the squad hasn’t come together in the ways that fans had hoped.
They have now lost six games in a row.
That number might grow to seven if the Cavaliers have their way.
The team is missing a few players right now, such as Jarrett Allen, Kevin Love, and Lamar Stevens, but they have plenty of other guys who are leading the way.
Darius Garland, Donovan Mitchell, and Evan Mobley are all ready to play on Friday – but don’t be surprised if they get a lot of time off the court.
These guys could be getting a decent amount of rest if they are able to put the Magic away early.
