The Oklahoma City Thunder and Cleveland Cavaliers are going toe-to-toe in a fun contest in which the NBA has spent the past 24 hours marketing.

This is a game that started to grow buzz a couple of weeks ago, when the NBA decided to flex tonight's and next Thursday's matchup between these two teams onto National TV.

The Thunder will be in Cleveland tonight on ESPN, with the return trip game next Thursday in Oklahoma City being shown on TNT.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is in the midst of an MVP campaign, the Cavs are still out to prove they are more than a great regular season team but legitimate contenders - a win over the Thunder would continue to boost up their resume.
