Things can change quickly in the NBA.
The Cleveland Cavaliers have had a rough start to the season, which was capped by a disastrous loss to a bad Charlotte Hornets team without multiple key contributors. But for as bad as things have been, a win over the New York Knicks would go a long way toward turning things around.

Cleveland has lost five straight to New York. This includes a frustrating loss last Saturday night, when the Cavs couldn’t grab rebounds when they needed them and had no answer for Jalen Brunson.
The Knicks will be on the second night of a back-to-back. They host the reeling Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday evening.
We’ll see if the Cavs can right the ship on Wednesday.
