The NBA playoffs are here, and the energy in Cleveland is electric. After a strong regular season, the Cavaliers are set to embark on another postseason journey, with fans dreaming of a deep run. The first step is the opening round, and the schedule is now locked in.

However, there's a significant change for local fans tuning in this year. Unlike in previous seasons, the Cavaliers' first playoff game will not be broadcast on the local Fanduel Sports Network. This news was confirmed during the postgame wrap-up of the final regular season game, leaving many to seek alternative viewing options.

For those looking to catch every dribble and dunk, checking official NBA streaming services and national broadcast schedules will be essential. As the Cavs gear up for tip-off, the city's hopes are pinned on the team's core to set the tone early and build momentum for what could be a memorable playoff push.
