Pair of local basketball games this early evening as the No. 2/3 Ohio State Buckeyes and Cleveland Cavaliers are both back in action.
Ohio State has yet another opportunity to potentially move back to the top spot in the rankings with a contest against Indiana University at 4 p.m. This home contest marks the third-to-last in the regular season schedule for the Buckeyes, and is a rematch of a 85-67 road victory on New Year’s Eve.
Meanwhile, the Cavs hope to continue their hot play of late by hosting the suddenly playoff contending Philadelphia 76ers at 5 p.m. Cleveland has won three of five games since their historic losing streak, and again will not be with the services of recent acquisitions Baron Davis, Luke Harangody and Semih Erden (update via @PDCavsInsider/Mary Schmitt Boyer).
Feel free to follow along with all the action here in the comment section, as we hope for a pair of Sunday hoop victories in the state of Ohio.
