Cavaliers 2024 Playoff Schedule: Every playoff game (updated)
By Curt Bishop
The Cleveland Cavaliers are postseason bound.
After finishing the regular season with a record of 48-34, they are headed to the playoffs as the No. 4 seed and will open up at home against the No. 5 seed Orlando Magic in the first round.
Cleveland has stars such as Donovan Mitchell, Darius Garland, Caris LeVert, Evan Mobley, and Jarrett Allen, and with those players, they look like a force to be reckoned with as the playoffs get underway later this week. They'll look to win their first NBA title since 2016.
In this piece, we will take a look at their current playoff schedule and what they'll be up against later this week.
