Time is winding down on the 2021-22 regular season, with just a handful of games remaining as the Cavaliers continue their postseason push in a rare matinee at Madison Square Garden.
The Wine & Gold (42-35) come into today’s contest looking to turn the tide on a recent slide that’s seen them drop five of their last six, including a Thursday night decision in Atlanta. With five games to go, the banged-up Cavs sit three full games behind the Raptors for the 6th seed and two games ahead of the Nets, Hornets and Hawks.
The Knicks (34-43) were officially eliminated from postseason contention when Atlanta won on Thursday night, but have been playing well of late.
