What to Know

The Cleveland Cavaliers haven’t won a contest against the New Orleans Pelicans since March 30 of 2018, but they’ll be looking to end the drought Monday. Cleveland is getting right back to it as they host New Orleans at 7 pm ET Jan. 31 at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse. The Cavaliers are out to keep their four-game home win streak alive.

The point spread favored Cleveland on Sunday, but luck did not. They came up short against the Detroit Pistons, falling 115-105. Point guard Darius Garland put forth a good effort for the losing side as he shot 5-for-10 from downtown and finished with 24 points and seven dimes.

Meanwhile, New Orleans came up short against the Boston Celtics this past Saturday, falling 107-97. New Orleans’ defeat came about despite a quality game from point guard Jose Alvarado, who had 19 points.

It was close but no cigar for Cleveland as they fell 108-104 to the Pelicans in the teams’ previous meeting last month. Maybe the Cavaliers will have more luck at home instead of on the road? Watch the game and check back on CBS Sports for all the details.
