The Cleveland Cavaliers (26-7) will play host to Dwyane Wade, Jimmy Butler and the Chicago Bulls (17-18) on Wednesday evening. Here is how to watch this NBA game online.

The Chicago Bulls have floundered a bit after a hot start but the task will not get any easier for Fred Hoiberg’s team on Wednesday night. In a nationally televised match-up of Eastern Conference rivals, the Bulls will travel the relatively short distance to Cleveland to take on LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Chicago managed to pick up an important victory in their last outing, using a 52-point explosion from Jimmy Butler to down the Charlotte Hornets on Monday. However, the Bulls remain below the .500 mark with losses in eight of the team’s past 12 games. Beyond that, the team is facing some internal strife with the demotion of Rajon Rondo to the bench and spacing issues have begun to manifest in the form of a struggling offense.

On the Cleveland side, everything is going fairly well. The Cavaliers have not lost a game with LeBron James on the floor in quite some time and this is the presumptive Eastern Conference favorite by a significant margin. Cleveland’s last contest was an eight-point win over the New Orleans Pelicans that was anything but dominant, but given the ESPN stage, it is safe to assume that the Cavs will be “up” for this match-up.

Date: Wednesday, Jan. 4
Time: 8:00 p.m. ET
Location: Cleveland, Ohio
Venue: Quicken Loans Arena
TV Info: ESPN, Fox Sports Ohio, WGN-TV
Live Stream: Watch ESPN

While Bulls fans may be optimistic given the performance of Butler and the team at-large in the last outing, FiveThirtyEight provides an 85% chance of a Cavaliers victory in this game. The good folks from Las Vegas line up with this by assigning Cleveland as a hefty home favorite.

Nationally televised games involving LeBron James, Kyrie Irving, Dwyane Wade and Jimmy Butler are pretty fun and this should be an entertaining battle.
