The Cavaliers look to win their third straight road contest – and take the first two against the Hornets this season – as they head south for a Wednesday night showdown in Charlotte.
The Wine & Gold put together a better effort on Sunday than the previous evening against Toronto, but still dropped both halves of their weekend back-to-back at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, falling to Zion Williamson and the Pelicans. Playing without both Collin Sexton and Darius Garland, Cleveland led for most of the way. But Williamson led New Orleans’ final push, closing the game on an 8-2 run to win their sixth straight over the Cavs.
