Cavs coach J.B. Bickerstaff returns from a rejuvenating break, ready to tackle the remainder of the regular season and beyond. With the team currently holding the second seed and a stellar record of 36-17, they reconvene for practice, except for star player Donovan Mitchell, who enjoys an extra day off following the All-Star weekend. Mitchell is expected to return for the team’s next game against the Orlando Magic. The Cavs face a challenging second-half schedule, with numerous back-to-back games and a majority of matchups on the road. Despite this,
the team remains focused on making a deep postseason run, relying on their talented roster and embracing their depth. Bickerstaff plans to maintain a 10-man rotation to manage player minutes effectively. The Cavs’ improved bench strength has been a significant factor in their success this season, with players like Caris LeVert and Isaac Okoro making significant contributions. As the team prepares for the grueling schedule ahead, their focus remains on consistency and building championship-level habits for the playoffs.
