Cavaliers move up tip-off time to accommodate Indians in World Series

The Cavaliers moved up their game so fans could watch the World Series.

The Cleveland Cavaliers have moved up their tip-off time to 6 p.m. ET to allow fans to watch most of the Indians' World Series game, owner Dan Gilbert announced.

The Cavaliers were set to take on the Houston Rockets at 7:10 p.m. at Quicken Loans Arena, which is across the street from Progressive Field. The Indians will host the Chicago Cubs for Game 6 of the World Series at 8 p.m.

CLE, we fought hard to move @cavs tip to 6pm tomorrow so you wouldn't be torn. @cavs game should end by 2nd inning. Can't wait, @Indians!

• For Indians, Lindor and Ramirez take different paths to World Series stage

The Indians lead the series 3–2 and are looking to win their first championship since 1948. Over the summer, the Cavaliers ended the city's 52-year championship drought by defeating the Golden State Warriors in seven games of the NBA Finals.

LeBron James and several teammates from the Cavaliers were in attendance for Game 2.
