On the other side of the court, the Cleveland Cavaliers have their own set of talented players who can make an impact in this game.

In their previous game against the Miami Heat, Allen recorded an impressive double-double with 17 points and 13 rebounds. His efficiency was remarkable with a field goals percentage of 78% and a free throws percentage of 100%.

The Hornets have averaged 103 points per game, while the Cavaliers have averaged 96 points per game. Additionally, the Hornets have a higher field goals percentage of 44% compared to the Cavaliers' 40%.
