Cleveland lost its first game of this roadie on Friday night at the Denver Nuggets, given Denver’s second half play, where the Cavs’ defense had a world of trouble containing the Nuggets’ attack, and Denver made almost half of their three-point shot attempts. That, and Donovan Mitchell sitting in that one because of rest didn’t bode well for the Wine and Gold, and Cleveland looked choppy at times on offense after half, too, in a 121-108 L.
With that said, the Cavaliers will have to turn the page, and on Sunday night, they’ll face a Phoenix Suns team that they just played, then at home, on Wednesday night. In that outing, the Cavs did just enough to come back late in a 90-88 win, and this next go-round, hopefully Cleveland’s offense can have more steady flow throughout. That first Cavs-Suns meeting of the season didn’t feature that, clearly.
Suns injuries: Devin Booker (out indefinitely, groin); Cameron Johnson (out, knee); Cameron Payne (out, foot); Jae Crowder (out, not with team); Chris Paul (questionable, hip). Cavaliers-Suns: Projected startersCavs starters: Darius Garland/Donovan Mitchell, Donovan Mitchell/Caris LeVert, Isaac Okoro, Evan Mobley, Jarrett AllenSuns starters: Chris Paul/Landry Shamet, Landry Shamet/Duane Washington Jr., Mikal Bridges, Torrey Craig, Deandre AytonCavaliers-Suns: PredictionAs we mentioned, the first Cavs-Suns matchup on Wednesday night was hardly a shootout, as both teams struggled mightily for extended stretches offensively, and in that one, the Cavaliers had 33 points at halftime.
This game could potentially be another low scoring affair, as Garland and Paul are both questionable coming into Sunday, too. Mitchell will be in action, as an aside. What would make a sizeable difference here, though, would be a bounce-back game from Jarrett Allen, who uncharacteristically had just two points in that last meeting against Ayton and company, and had three shot attempts in 33 minutes. The Cavaliers need Allen to play how he’s capable of as an interior presence, and ideally, him and Evan Mobley need to bother Ayton at the other end.
