On the injury front for the Bobcats, guard Derek Anderson is questionable for Friday's game against Cleveland with a bruised right knee.

Cleveland, meanwhile, had a four-game winning streak stopped after Wednesday's 90-81 setback to the Atlanta Hawks at Philips Arena.

LeBron James had a game-high 31 points to go along with 10 rebounds for the Cavs, who suffered their first loss in the new year (4-1). Devin Brown added 12 points off the bench, while Drew Gooden had a double-double with 10 points and 11 boards in defeat.

In injury news for the Cavs, forward Anderson Varejao (knee/Achilles) is doubtful for Friday's game versus Charlotte.
