The Cleveland Cavaliers and Phoenix Suns are playing live on the NBA schedule on Tuesday night and the matchup from the US Airways Center starts at 9 pm ET and should see the return of LeBron James to the court after an injury absence and the Cavs now are looking to stay above .500 this season as they head out west for a road swing.

The Cavaliers come into the game after another tough loss and they now are 19-19 on the season and James can't come back soon enough. The team has been getting strong play from Kevin Love and Kyrie Irving, but they need more to be a contending team in the east. The team is now third in the central division and they are playing against a 22-18 Suns team that can score with anyone.

Love comes in after putting up 25 points against the Kings, while new acquisition Timofey Mozgov had 12 rebounds. The team next plays against the Lakers and they come in ranked 17th overall in points per game. The team is 12th in assists and 24th in rebounding and they are 18th in points allowed per game. The Suns come into the matchup after an overtime loss against the Grizzlies and they will next play against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

The Suns are ranked fourth in points scored per game this season and they are 28th in points allowed and with James coming back, this could be a high scoring matchup. James is leading the team with 25 points per game and his absence has been felt and now he is ready to come back for his first game in 2015. The team got 14 points from Mozgov in the last game, while Kyrie Irving added 21 and everyone should benefit once James gets back on the floor.
