Cavs, Hawks Looking For First Win Of Season
The Cleveland Cavaliers play host to the Atlanta Hawks, at Quicken Loans Arena on Sunday evening.

Both the Cavs (0-2) and the Hawks (0-2) are winless to start the season, and will be battling for every inch in this opportunity for one of them to break the streak.

The Cavaliers had a couple of tough road games to start their season, as they fell in Toronto and Minnesota, in their first games in the second post-LeBron James era. They gave up a total of 247 points in the two contests combined, as their defense already looks in need of repair. On the bright side Kevin Love has been solid in both contests, putting up all-star numbers, while Cedi Osman has also looked very good at the starting small forward position. The Cavaliers will have a chance to earn their first win of the season in their first home game of the season.

Meanwhile, the Hawks have also started their season with two straight road games, having fallen short in New York and then in Memphis. This marks their third and final game of a road trip to start their season. Trey Young has looked solid in his first two games as a rookie, averaging 17 points, seven assists and four rebounds per game. Taurean Prince has also had a strong start to the season, averaging 24.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 4.5 assists per game.
