The Cleveland Cavaliers are on the road to the Atlanta Hawks in the NBA Cup on Friday with a simple goal in mind. Their target made clearer by the Toronto Rapto

The Knicks and Cavaliers figure to jockey for home-court advantage throughout the season. New York struck first in teams' season opener.

The Cleveland Cavaliers can advance in the NBA Cup despite their loss to the Toronto Raptors in group play. They are currently holding the Eastern Conference wildcard spot heading into the final day of group stage action on Friday. But a lot can change between now and the end of play on Friday.

It was a far cry from last season, when Tom Thibodeau’s Knicks led the NBA in starter minutes, and thus ranked dead last in bench minutes.

Following a breakout season with the Eastern Conference's No. 1 seeded Cleveland Cavaliers (64-18) in 2024-25, Jerome decided to ink a 3-year, $28 million deal with the Grizzlies to back up their 2-time All-Star point guard Ja Morant.

Giannis Antetokounmpo returned to the lineup for the Bucks in their NBA Cup loss to the Knicks on Friday night after missing four games because of a groin strain.

Appearing on Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart’s “Roomates Show” podcast, Rick Pitino said he urged the Knicks in 2017 to draft Donovan Mitchell.

Jalen Brunson scored 37 points and the New York Knicks advanced to the knockout round of the NBA Cup, beating the Milwaukee Bucks 118-111 on Friday night in Giannis Antetokounmpo’s return from a groin injury.

The final day of NBA Cup group play is Friday, Nov. 28 and it features a meeting between the Milwaukee bucks and New York Knicks.
