SAN ANTONIO, Texas — The Cleveland Cavaliers take the Eastern Conference’s best record to the Frost Bank Center today – Friday, April 4 – for a matchup against the San Antonio Spurs. The game will be broadcast locally on FanDuel Sports Network in Cleveland and on KENS 5 in San Antonio. Tipoff is 8 p.m. Eastern (7 p.m. Central).
Several streaming services will carry the game live and you can watch locally for free on Fubo (free trial) or DirecTV Stream (free trial).
The Cavaliers come into Friday night’s game fresh off a 124-105 victory over the New York Knicks on Wednesday. The win marked their 61st of the season, tying the franchise record for second-most wins in a single campaign. Donovan Mitchell led the way with 27 points, while Jarrett Allen added 21 as the Cavs erased a 15-point second-quarter deficit.
Despite the milestone, it hasn’t been smooth sailing for Cleveland. The team is just 5-5 over its last 10 games and is still trying to secure home-court advantage in the Eastern Conference playoffs. Super sub Ty Jerome (12.2 PPG) has missed the last four games, and while the Cavs lead the league in scoring at 122.4 points per game, they’ve allowed an average of 116.4 points since March 16.
The Spurs (32-44), meanwhile, have been dealing with some tough luck. Both of their stars, De’Aaron Fox and Victor Wembanyama, are out for the season. But they’re still fighting, as shown by their 113-106 road win over the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday, snapping a five-game losing streak. Veterans Harrison Barnes (20 points) and Chris Paul (17 points) led the charge.
Guard Devin Vassell, who has taken on the scoring load with Wembanyama and Fox sidelined, missed that game but could return Friday night. The Spurs are hoping to end a three-game home losing streak, while the Cavs boast an impressive 28-10 record on the road.
