Fresh Off 71-Point Explosion, Donovan Mitchell Takes on the Suns

Plus, you can watch more high-profile college basketball showdowns, including a top-20 matchup between Arkansas and Missouri.

There have been some incredible scoring displays lately in the NBA. Last night, we got yet another one, as Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 55 points to lead the Bucks past the Wizards. Tonight, another high-scoring star headlines the sports slate in Cavs guard Donovan Mitchell. Plus, don’t miss a busy night in men’s college basketball and a pair of intriguing matchups in the NHL.

Here’s what I’m watching today.

Phoenix Suns at Cleveland Cavaliers

Last time out, Donovan Mitchell scored a ridiculous 71 points in one of the most impressive performances of the season, leading the Cavs to an overtime win over the Bulls. It was quite the way for Cleveland’s star guard to open 2023, and he’ll look to follow that up with another big performance tonight against the slumping Suns. Phoenix has lost three straight and six of seven. With Devin Booker sidelined, the Suns have lacked the offensive firepower to keep up with their competition.
