Victor Oladipo made his comeback on Tuesday, March 8 after almost a year on the sidelines and the guard scored 11 points as Erik Spoelstra's team beat the Houston Rockets 123-106 in Miami.
"That was very uplifting for everybody," Spoelstra said on Oladipo's return to action. "Everybody is really encouraging him. They've seen him behind the scenes, really working and grinding."
The Cavs occupy sixth place in the East standings with a record of 38-27 and they are seeking a third win on the spin after edging the Indiana Pacers 127-124 in Indianapolis on Wednesday, March 9.

Darius Garland scored a career-high 41 points to set up the victory and Cavaliers head coach JB Bickerstaff admitted the Pacers just couldn't deal with the guard.
"They tried to trap him, they switched on him, they put bigger bodies on him and he found ways to get it done," Bickerstaff said. "We need every single bucket. He was primed for the moment and he carried us home."
The Heat have yet to beat the Cavaliers this season, with their last meeting on December 13 seeing the Cleveland franchise emerge 105-94 victors as Kevin Love led the way with 23 points.
