Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Miami Heat Team Roster
We are updating team formations and lineups for the Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Miami Heat game in real-time. The starting lineups are yet to be announced.
Although Cleveland had wrapped up playoff qualification weeks ago, and had the luxury of resting their starters, they will go into the first round with some fitness anxiety, as most of the starters are struggling to get fit. We expect Darius Garland, Donovan Mitchell, Max Strus, and Evan Mobley to recover from injuries to join Jarret Allen, who played in the season finale at Indiana last week. Tyler Herro scored 30 points against the Atlanta Hawks as Miami's starters won a second play-in game to make it to the playoffs. Herro will be joined by Andrew Wiggins, Bam Adebayo, Kel'el Ware and Alec Burks when they play the Cavs on Monday.

Bet on Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Miami Heat with Bet365What to Expect from the Game between Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Miami Heat
The oddsmakers think the Cavaliers will blowout the Miami Heat in this game, and probably the entire series, as reflected in the huge underdog status given to the Heat. But this week, Miami has shown resilience and character, winning twice on the road at Chicago and Atlanta to become the first No. 10 seed to make the playoffs via the play-in. When you add that to the two victories over the number one seed during the regular season, including in March without Jimmy Butler III, then fans can expect a dicey game. The Cavaliers have home-court advantage and it may amount to something afterall. Bettors in search of an upset may look at this tie, while noting that the Cavs have lost just 18 times this season.
