The Cavs trail the Celtics 3-1, so they need a victory to avoid elimination.

If they can stay alive, Game 6 would be on Saturday evening in Ohio.

Whoever wins the series will advance to the Eastern Conference Finals and face off against either the New York Knicks or the Indiana Pacers.

The Knicks lead the Pacers 3-2 with Game 6 on Friday evening in Indiana.
