After a 104-81 win over Detroit last Friday, the Cleveland Cavaliers continue their three-game homestand when they face off against the Portland Trail Blazers tonight at Quicken Loans Arena. This is the first of two regular season meetings between the two teams in 2016-17 (1/11 at Portland).

Cleveland is 1-0 against the Western Conference this season (128-120 win over Houston on Nov. 1). Over the last 46 regular season games versus the West, the Cavs are 37-9 against them, including 21-3 at home.

The Wine and Gold have the best record in the Eastern Conference at 10-2.

Cleveland is 7-1 at The Q this season where they are averaging 113.6 points per game. They have scored at least 100 points in all eight home games, which include three contests with over 120 points.

UPCOMING MILESTONES: LeBron James (6,914) is 4 assists away from passing Guy Rodgers (6,917) for 17th place on the NBA’s all-time assists list. Kyrie Irving (2,450 FGM) is 7 field goals away from passing Jim Chones (2,456) to crack the Top 10 in most field goals made in Cavaliers history.
