The Cleveland Cavaliers will try to extend their winning streak to four games as they head south to take on the Atlanta Hawks.

Both the Cavs and Hawks will be playing on the second end of back-to-backs. Cleveland won their game on Wednesday over the Washington Wizards thanks to five threes from Evan Mobley and a strong performance on both sides of the court in the second half. The Hawks, however, are coming off a loss to the Miami Heat, where they were thoroughly dominated in the paint.

The Cavs have struggled in Atlanta in recent seasons. They have lost their last four games at State Farm Arena, with their most recent win coming in January 2024. We’ll see if the Cavs can change that trend tonight.
