Cleveland Cavaliers vs Miami Heat
This is one of those games you’ll surely want to tune into. The Cleveland Cavaliers will be traveling to South Beach to take on the Miami Heat in LeBron James’ return. Sure, he’s played in Miami a few times since leaving two years ago, but it’s always fun to see how he’s welcomed by fans. Can the first-place Cavaliers extend their Eastern Conference lead?

James leads the Cavaliers offensively and is the main reason as to why Cleveland sits atop the conference standings. He’s averaging 24.9 points, 7.4 rebounds and 6.5 assists per game. Kyrie Irving is averaging 19.9 points but dishes only 4.5 assists per game. For an elite point guard, you would like to see a much higher assist number for Irving.
Miami has been over LeBron James leaving for an entire year now. Sure, it hurt to see him go, but the Heat won an NBA title thanks to him and are once again seeing success without him. The Heat are currently 39-29 and sitting in sixth place in the Eastern Conference. The veteran leadership on this team can take it to the conference finals.
Chris Bosh has been out for the past few games because of blood clot issues and he was leading the team with 19.1 points per game before that. Dwyane Wade is doing a nice job as the team’s leader, scoring 19.0 points, dishing 4.7 assists and grabbing 4.1 rebounds per game. The Heat are going to be a team to watch this spring.
