The NBA Playoffs action on Saturday, April 26 gets started with the Cleveland Cavaliers visiting the Miami Heat at the Kaseya Center in Miami for Game 3 of their series.

Game 3 was going to be a stiff challenge already, with the Cavs’ best-of-seven playoff series shifting to South Beach — a place where they haven’t won much the last decade. It just got more difficult.
