Watch out for this Cavaliers player

Donovan Mitchell, guard. Sixth year player in the NBA, he is undoubtedly the sensation player of the Cavs, a club where shining is not an easy thing, since every player will always be compared to an icon of the franchise such as Lebron James. This player is the season leader in points (28.0), assists (6.2), steals (1.8) and minutes per game (35.7) of his team, being vital for manager J.B. Bickerstaff.

March 3, 2024 6:08 PM ET

Watch out for this Knicks player

Jalen Brunson, small forward. Fifth year player in the NBA, his great performance has made him shine in one of the most competitive leagues in the world, Knicks is not an easy team and no doubt stand out is not either, but this player in the season is the leader in points (27.7), assists (6.7) and minutes per game (36.1) of his team, becoming a real AS for manager Tom Thibudeau.

The Cavs face an impossible mission, reach the first place in the conference

The Cleveland Cavaliers are the Celtics' escorts, although they have been doing very well during most of the season, their performance is not enough to reach the Boston Cavs. Now, the first place, not being an obsession, can serve the Cavs, as motivation for their improvement, their numbers are very good, but they must continue adding if they want to remain behind the Celtics, and be the potential challengers to the Eastern Conference championship trophy. 
Cleveland in the season has a record of 39 wins and 20 losses, with an effectiveness of .661, at home they have a positive record of 20-10, although they come from a victory, they can not be confident and will seek to beat the Knicks, to keep the second place in the Eastern Conference.
