KEY GAME INFORMATION
CLEVELAND: LAST SEASON: 19-63.
COACH: John Beilein (first season).
PROJECTED STARTING FIVE: G Collin Sexton (16.7 ppg), G Darius Garland (Rookie), F Cedi Osman (13.0 ppg), F Kevin Love (17.0 ppg, 22 games), Tristan Thompson (10.9 ppg, 10.2 rpg).
KEY LOSSES: F Channing Frye, G J.R. Smith.
KEY ADDITIONS: Beilein, Garland, C/F John Henson, G Kevin Porter Jr., G Dylan Windler.
PLAYERS TO WATCH: Garland could accelerate the Cavs' rebuilding project. Before a left knee injury cut short his freshman season at Vanderbilt, the 6-foot-2 playmaker was ranked as the top player in his class, ahead of even Zion Williamson. His pairing with Sexton gives Cleveland a young, dynamic backcourt drawing comparisons to Portland's duo of Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum. Sexton's growth as a rookie was extraordinary, and it will be interesting to see how he blends with Garland, who is more of a traditional point guard. Love's future, which is always in question, could hinge on how quickly the team's youngsters bloom. If the Cavs get the right offer, Love could be traded despite his hopes to stay with Cleveland.
OUTLOOK: Beilein's forte in college was player development and the former Michigan coach appears to be an ideal fit for Cleveland's youth movement. He'll push the Cavs and make sure they play hard, and Love and Thompson will give the squad invaluable leadership. Injuries have sidetracked Love the past few seasons, but the 31-year-old feels physically refreshed and is committed to showing his young teammates what it takes. It's going to be another long season in Cleveland, but there appears to be a promising future.
LA CLIPPERS: LAST SEASON: 48-34, lost 4-2 to Golden State in Western Conference first round.
COACH: Doc Rivers (seventh season with Clippers, 307-185; 21st season overall, 894-658).
PROJECTED STARTING FIVE: F Kawhi Leonard (30.5 ppg with Toronto), F Paul George (23.7 with Oklahoma City), G Patrick Beverley (7.6), G Landry Shamet (9.1), C Ivica Zubac (8.9).
KEY LOSSES: G Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, F Danilo Gallinari, F Wilson Chandler, G-F Garrett Temple, G Sindarius Thornwell, G Tyrone Wallace.
KEY ADDITIONS: Leonard, George.
PLAYERS TO WATCH: It's all about newcomers Leonard and George. They'll be the top two options on offense. Leonard is coming off a season in which he led Toronto to its first NBA championship (and earned his second ring). Leonard returning home was contingent upon pairing with George, also an LA-area native. George, who finished third in MVP voting last season, can guard nearly any position while being a huge scoring threat. Lou Williams and Montrezl Harrell, the NBA's top bench-scoring duo last season, will get starter-level minutes again.
OUTLOOK: No more watching other teams go deep in the playoffs. The NBA's balance of power has shifted to the Clippers, who have never advanced beyond the second round let alone won a championship. All that's expected to change behind Leonard and George, both regarded as two of the best two-way players in the league. The Clippers had to give up talented veteran Gallinari and star-in-the-making Gilgeous-Alexander, but they kept Harrell, Williams and re-signed Beverley, whose sole job will be using his tenacious D to keep others from scoring. The Clippers are favorites to win it all, a stunning shift for a franchise that has spent much of its existence as a punch line.
PREVIEW
Clippers look to cure recent issues as Cavs visit
 

Los Angeles Clippers coach Doc Rivers continues to search for answers to solve his team's instability.

"It's a work in progress. We've just got to keep working," Rivers told reporters after the Clippers dropped a 114-104 decision to the host Denver Nuggets on Sunday. "If there was just a button to push, I would just push it. But it's going to be more than that."

Rivers hopes the Clippers can find the right formula when they host the Cleveland Cavaliers on Tuesday.

Injuries continue to contribute to the inconsistency of the Clippers, who are 7-6 in their past 13 games.

Six-time All-Star Paul George is the latest Clipper to be sidelined, missing the previous two games with a strained left hamstring.

George initially sustained the injury in a Jan. 2 victory over the Detroit Pistons, but after missing Los Angeles' blowout loss to the Memphis Grizzlies on Jan. 4, he returned to score 32 points in a narrow victory over the New York Knicks a day later. However, George aggravated the injury in practice last week.

He will sit out again Tuesday.

George's absence was felt at Denver. Kawhi Leonard had 30 points, Lou Williams scored 26, and Montrezl Harrell finished with 25 points and eight rebounds, but no other Clipper reached double figures.

Los Angeles trailed by as many as 20 in the second half before rallying late but was unable to overcome the deficit.

"We started out well. That second quarter just destroyed us," Rivers said. Denver outscored Los Angeles 37-22 in the quarter for a 66-52 advantage at the break before increasing the margin in the third quarter.

"We gave up 37 points. You give up 37 points in a quarter, you're probably going to lose the game, and we've done that a couple of times. Their second unit changed the game."

Rivers was ejected late in the contest but believed the game's officials erred in doing so. What drew the coach's ire was a review failing to go his way after a pick by Harrell sent Nuggets forward Jerami Grant sprawling to the court.

"As coaches can lose their composure, so can officials," Rivers said. "There was no way I should have been thrown out of the game."

The Cavaliers will be playing the second end of back-to-back contests after falling 128-99 to the host Los Angeles Lakers on Monday. Cleveland led 48-47 at the half before being outscored 81-51 in the second half.

"When the pendulum began to swing, we couldn't stop it," Cavaliers coach John Beilein said, according to the Cleveland Plain Dealer. "LeBron (James) took a lot of matters into his own hands, as he has for years, and we just didn't have any answers for some of that. So, still a lot of positives we are going to take from that game, as we are playing another team that can win the NBA championship."

Kevin Love had 21 points and 11 rebounds, and Tristan Thompson finished with 17 points and 10 rebounds for the Cavaliers. Collin Sexton and Darius Garland added 16 points apiece while Cedi Osman had 15.

Injuries have also hurt Cleveland. Former Laker Larry Nance Jr. missed his sixth straight contest with a knee injury, but there is a chance he could return to face the Clippers.

The club announced Monday that rookie Dylan Windler, who had yet to make his debut, would miss the rest of the season because of a lower left leg stress reaction.

The Cavaliers also remain without reserve guard Kevin Porter Jr., who sustained a knee injury Jan. 5 against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The initial prognosis was he would be out for four to six weeks.
