KEY GAME INFORMATION

CLEVELAND: There's a chance that LeBron James could end up being as motivated as ever this season, fueled by Kyrie Irving's trade demand and coming off a season in which he finished fourth in the MVP voting. Despite losing Irving, the Cavs remain the class of the Eastern Conference and it's hard to imagine any team denying them a fourth straight Finals appearance, particularly with Boston having suffered a major blow with the season-ending injury Gordon Hayward suffered in the season opener at Cleveland. Isaiah Thomas is expected back from his back injury by year's end, but his return could end up complicating things for head coach Tyronn Lue, who must keep everyone happy with their playing time. Kevin Love's move to center should open floor space for James, Dwayne Wade and Derrick Rose. James can opt out of his contract next summer and become a free agent and his future plans will hover over the Cavs all season. But back with Dwayne Wade, he and the Cavs seem to be in a happy place.

CHARLOTTE: The loss of Nic Batum to start the season'the expectation is that he'll be sidelined until at least mid-November with a torn ligament in his left elbow'is a big one for the Hornets, as he was expected to trigger the pick and roll game with Dwight Howard. Filling the void at shooting guard is expected to be Jeremy Lamb, whose off-season improvement and rededication to basketball has drawn raves from head coach Steve Clifford. The feeling is the Hornets can return to being a playoff contender for the third time in five years if Howard returns to an All-Star level after two disappointing season in Houston and Atlanta. Howard has played under Clifford in the past, and his addition allows two-year starter Cody Zeller to play with the second team where he is much better suited.

PREVIEW

Hornets hope Batum's return helps against Cavs

CHARLOTTE -- The Charlotte Hornets expect forward Nic Batum to make his season debut Wednesday night when they host the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The Hornets will be seeking to end a four-game losing streak and the Cavaliers to extend a two-game winning run when they duel for the first of three times this season.

Cleveland has dominated Charlotte the past three seasons, winning six in a row and 10 of 11. The Hornets haven't beaten the Cavaliers at home since February 2016.

Batum averaged 14.0 points, 5.8 rebounds and 5.3 assists in the four Charlotte losses last season, all of which were by 12 points or fewer.

The Hornets are hoping his return can help end a losing streak that's also featured more than its fair share of narrow defeats. Charlotte is coming off losses at New York and Boston by a total of eight points.

Batum torn the UCL ligament in his left elbow in the preseason. He returned to practice in full last week, and -- at least in his mind -- has a green light for Wednesday's season debut.

"If it's my call, yes," he responded when asked about his possible return after Tuesday's practice. "If the coaches and the training staff are OK with it, it should be a go."

Without Batum, the Hornets have slipped to near the bottom of several offensive categories in the NBA. With scoring up in the league overall this season, the Hornets have dipped from 104.9 points per game last year, 16th-best in the league, to 103.4, the NBA's third-worst.

While Batum's 15.1 scoring average has played a role in that, so have the 5.9 assists per game the club has lost in his absence. The veteran ranked up there with the league's best in assists among forwards each of the last two seasons.

The Hornets will take the court Wednesday night as the league's worst team in assists (19.5 per game), well down from last season's 23.1 average.

Batum's return couldn't come at a better time. The Hornets figure to need all hands on deck to deal with a Cleveland club that is headed in a positive direction after a 4-6 start.

The Cavaliers are looking to complete a four-game trip with a third win, having edged New York 104-101 on Monday night.

LeBron James led a late flurry against the Knicks after the Cavaliers had fallen 17 points behind. He wound up playing 36 minutes on a night that began with his coach, Tyronn Lue, criticizing his conditioning.

"He has to get in shape," Lue insisted. "He missed the whole training camp, that's the reason why."

Hornets fans are hoping to see a tired James on Wednesday night because they've surely seen him at his best many times in the past.

James nearly had a triple-double in his last visit in March with 32 points, nine rebounds and 11 assists. He also totaled 32 points in Cleveland's road win in December.

James had a triple-double in his sixth career game against the Hornets in 2006, recording 37 points, 11 rebounds and 12 assists.

His 39-6 career record in games against the Hornets also includes a 61-point explosion for the Miami Heat in 2014.
