Spurs will open the season against the Mavericks
Cavs will play at home against the Knicks
LeBron James' first game back with the Cleveland Cavaliers will be at home on Oct. 30 against the New York Knicks, according to a league source. The game features the league's hottest two commodities during this summer's free-agency period: James and the Knicks' Carmelo Anthony.
According to the source, the Cavs were initially supposed to open the season on the road against the NBA champion San Antonio Spurs, where James' season and career with the Miami Heat ended. Instead, he and fellow newcomer Kevin Love, who will officially join Cleveland later this month after the trade involving Andrew Wiggins is completed, will play host to New York.
