(SportsNetwork.com) - LeBron James said he feels better than he did two weeks ago and that the Cleveland Cavaliers need to get back to their winning ways. The Cavaliers could get closer to tasting victory again with the pending return of James and will resume a five-game road trip Tuesday against the Phoenix Suns at US Airways Center. James is averaging 25.2 points per game and hasnt played since Dec. 28 versus Detroit because of a sore knee. The Cavs are 1-7 in James absence and have lost five in a row and nine of the last 11 games. When asked if he could play against Phoenix, James said hes a game-time decision. James got work in during Mondays practice and said it felt good to get back on the court. He did admit the rest was good for him, but not for the team. James, who is expected to get more treatment and is hoping his body reacts well before tip-off, believes the Cavaliers must sustain effort for 48 minutes and they havent done so recently. It wont be an easy task against the guard-loaded Suns. They present a lot challenges. They have three point guards that put extensive pressure on the defense, James said. Even if Im in the lineup or not, we have to do a really good job of communicating and flying around helping one another. Cleveland is coming off Sundays 103-84 loss to the Sacramento Kings and opened this western jaunt with a setback against the Golden State Warriors. In the recent defeat at the Kings, Kevin Love scored 25 points and pulled down 10 rebounds for his fifth straight double-double, while Kyrie Irving scored 21 points with seven assists. Irving has scored at least 21 points in eight of the last nine games, averaging 25.0 ppg in that time. The loss dropped the Cavs to 19-19 on the season and 8-10 on the road. It wasnt a good performance ... cant sugarcoat this, Cavs coach David Blatt said. The Cavs have lost three in a row on the road and have two games remaining on this sojourn against the Los Angeles Lakers and Clippers. Cavs forward Shawn Marion (hip) and newcomer J.R. Smith (elbow) are listed as questionable against Phoenix. The Suns are scheduled to remain in the desert for the next eight games versus Cleveland, Minnesota, the Lakers, Portland, Houston, the Clippers, Washington and Chicago, and are 9-7 at home. Phoenix is unbeaten in its last three home games and went 2-2 on a recent road swing, which culminated with Sundays 122-110 double-overtime loss at Memphis. The Grizzlies outscored the Suns, 14-2, in the second OT and were led by Zach Randolphs 27 points and 17 rebounds. Isaiah Thomas led the Suns with 20 points off the bench, Markieff Morris had 17 points and Alex Len posted 14 to go along with 13 rebounds. Phoenix shot 42 percent for the game and made only 8-of-35 3-pointers. Eric Bledsoe and Goran Dragic scored 11 and nine points, respectively. The Suns rallied from a 16-point hole in the second half and Bledsoes jumper was off the mark at the horn in the first overtime. It looked like he slipped, and he couldnt get off a decent shot, Suns coach Jeff Hornacek said. Brandan Wright, who was obtained from Boston on Friday, made his first appearance for the Suns and finished with seven points. Morris is posting an average of 16.0 points and 5.7 rebounds in his last seven games, and despite his low output against Memphis, Dragic is still scoring 18.9 ppg in his past 21 games. Bledsoe is averaging 18.4 points in his previous 14 contests. Phoenix is 10-4 in its last 14 games and split two games with Cleveland last season. The two teams will meet against March 7 at Quicken Loans Arena. The Suns are 6-2 in the past eight games in this series.

PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. -- Rory McIlroy is 18 holes away from his first PGA Tour victory in 18 months, a chance to show the world he is back on his game. Thats not the way McIlroy views the final round at the Honda Classic. McIlroy started strong, avoided a big number with a brilliant bogey in the middle and took on the wind and water on the 16th hole for one final birdie Saturday that gave him a 1-under 69 in the toughest conditions and a two-shot lead over Russell Henley at PGA National. The 24-year-old from Northern Ireland has come to expect this kind of performance. He finished one shot behind in Abu Dhabi. He played in the final group in Dubai, where nothing went well in the final round. And here is again, making key shots and big putt to keep his nose in front in the Honda Classic. "Ive been building and building toward getting my game to a level where I feel it should be," he said. "And Im pretty much at that point now." Saturday wasnt easy. McIlroy might have saved his day with a bogey on the par-3 seventh. He took a penalty drop from under a palmetto bush, and faced a shot off the pine straw across 20 yards of rough to an elevated green with the pin toward the back right. The shot came off perfectly, and he holed the 8-foot putt for bogey. "It was one of the best up-and-downs Ive ever had, I guess," McIlroy said. "And it was almost like a momentum builder. I just bogeyed the last, but walking off that seventh green with a bogey almost felt like I had saved par or I had almost gained a shot on the field. It kept any momentum that I had going to the next few holes." He closed out his round with a 5-iron into the wind to 10 feet of the flag on the 16th for a birdie, and then narrowly missed two birdie chances on the closing holes. McIlroy was at 12-under 198. Asked about the importance of winning on a major tour for the first time since the World Tour Championship in Dubai at the end of 2012, and the first time since the BMW Championship at Crooked Stick in 2012 on the PGA Tour, Boy Wonder grappled for the right answer. "It would be nice. It would be my seventh PGA Tour win," he said. "Thats what it is. No bigger, no smaller. And Ill go home and have a nice night and get up the next morning and go play the Seminole Pro-Member. So its all good." He also knows its not over. Henley wasnt doing anything special until he holed out from 150 yards for eagle on No. 14, and then rammed in a 50-foot birdie putt from just off the green at the 17th for birdie that gave him a 68 and put him in the last grroup for the first time since he won the Sony Open last year.dddddddddddd Thats the only time Henley has won -- in his debut as a PGA Tour member -- and he hasnt been in this situation since then. Henley has only two top 10s since that win down from Waikiki Beach at the start of 2012. Now he has to chase one of golfs biggest stars, on a course where only one players -- Ernie Els in 2008 -- has come from behind on the final day to win. "Im trying not to pay attention to what Rory is doing," Henley said. "Obviously, hes playing great and hes been in this situation a little bit more than me. But I still have a lot of confidence and Im just going to try to play my game and not worry about what hes doing too much." Russell Knox of Scotland had a 68 and was three shots behind, while Jhonattan Vegas of Venezuela had a 66 and was another shot back. David Hearn (70) of Brantford, Ont., was tied for 35th at 3 under. Tiger Woods is still in the game, but just barely. Woods matched the low round of the day. He was among five players who shot 65, all before the leaders teed off and the wind kicked into gear, but it was enough to move the No. 1 player 49 spots up the leaderboard and into a tie for 17th. Even so, he was seven shots behind. Woods has never won a PGA Tour event when trailing by more than five shots entering the last round. "Today was a positive day," Woods said after his lowest score in 10 rounds this year. "Hit the ball well and made some putts and got myself back in the hunt." It doesnt figure to be easy for Woods or anyone to track down McIlroy, who has converted the 54-hole lead in his last four PGA Tour wins dating to the 2011 Masters, where he blew a four-shot lead. That streak includes the Honda Classic two years, which he won to rise to No. 1 in the world for the first time. "Definitely not a coincidence," McIlroy said. "I learned a lot that day. I learned not to protect a 54-hole lead. I should have just stuck to the game plan, stuck to my process, not look at the leaderboard, not look at what other people are doing. ... And thats the reason that every 54-hole lead that Ive had since, Ive been able to close the deal. Hopefully, I can keep that run going tomorrow." It would be a remarkable turnaround for McIlroy, who a year ago was so frustrated with his game and high expectations that he walked off the course after 26 holes, a mistake he vowed to never repeat. "Theres still 18 holes to go," he said. "But Im feeling comfortable with where I am."
