The Cleveland Cavaliers’ road trip through the Central Time Zone continues as they travel to Illinois to take on the Chicago Bulls.

The Cavs bounced back from a disappointing loss to the Dallas Mavericks on Sunday with a win over the Milwaukee Bucks. The defense in Tuesday’s win wasn’t perfect. There were still a few too many breakdowns on the perimeter, but it certainly was a step in the right direction.

We’ll see if the Cavs can get some momentum going as they take on a Bulls team that will be on the second night of a back-to-back.
