The Cleveland Cavaliers have been one of the best stories in the NBA through the first half of the 2024-25 season.

Recently, Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James spoke highly of his former team (h/t Legion Hoops).

James (via New Heights): "The Cavs look amazing right now. They got another opportunity. I hope they keep it going, they got an opportunity to do something special."

Right now, the Cavs are the first seed in the Eastern Conference with a 34-5 record in 39 games.

They have gone 9-1 over their last ten.

On Thursday, the Cavs will have a big showdown with the Thunder in Oklahoma City.

Earlier this month, they beat the Thunder (at home) by a score of 129-122.

Via The NBA: "THE REMATCH. TOMORROW.

It was a historic matchup between the East No. 1 Cavaliers and West No. 1 Thunder last week... and now they will run it back Thursday night!

Donovan Mitchell and the 34-5 Cavs visit Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the 33-6 Thunder Thursday, 1/16 at 7:30pm/et on TNT."

Many NBA fans will likley enjoy hearing James speak about his former team.

The four-time MVP had two stints with the Cavs.
