The Cleveland Cavaliers began a two-game set in Brooklyn against the Nets on Tuesday, and the first game went to the Cavs.
Cleveland led by as many as 24 points and defeated the Nets 115-109 at Barclays Center.
The Cavs(46-28) have won two straight and four out of their last five, while the Nets(39-33) have lost four straight.
Here’s the Great, Not So Great, and the Bottom Line of the Cavs’ win over Brooklyn.
The Great:
Donovan Mitchell led the Cavs with 31 points, including five threes. In the fourth quarter, Mitchell threw down a nasty dunk over Brooklyn’s Yuta Watanabe, which may have been one of the best dunks of the season.
