Since Friday was the schedule release day for the 2021-2022 NBA season, I made a prediction about how the Cleveland Cavaliers would open their season. My prediction was that their first game would be at the Washington Wizards, our second game would be at the Orlando Magic, our third game would be at the Miami Heat and then our home opener would be against the Boston Celtics. That said, it turned out I wasn’t even close!
Instead, the first five games of the Cavs schedule (which you can view here) will be as follows: at the Memphis Grizzlies, home against the Charlotte Hornets, home against the Atlanta Hawks, at the Denver Nuggets, and at the LA Clippers.
