The Cleveland Cavaliers are in the midst of a tough stretch that consists of five games in seven nights this week, with the Clippers and Jazz on Sunday and Monday, the Mavericks on Wednesday, and the Magic and Heat on Friday and Saturday.
Earlier this week, head coach Tyronn Lue has stated that he will be resting stars this week in what is a crowded month of basketball.

With a back to back coming up in Florida, James might play both games as he’ll have a pair of days to get ready for it, but with the Cavs nothing is set in stone until a few hours before the game.
