LeBron James earned his second triple-double of the season in Cleveland's last win, and tonight he will face the team against which he compiled his first as the visiting Cavaliers (9-point faves) look to complete a season sweep of the Chicago Bulls.
The NBA's reigning scoring champion had averaged 37.7 points in his last seven games against the Bulls heading into a meeting earlier this month. He scored 41 points just four days apart in early November as the league-leading Cavaliers beat Chicago twice.
In the first meeting LeBron took just eight shots, finishing with 16 points, 11 assists, and 10 rebounds, which ended up being his first triple-double of the season.
Ben Wallace is questionable for tonight's game, and Zydrunas Ilgauskas is expected to miss another two weeks with a small fracture in his left ankle.
Bulls leading scorer Ben Gordon is averaging 27.3 points on 54.9 percent shooting in the three losses to the Cavaliers.
