The Cleveland Cavaliers overcame the absence of LeBron James to earn a 97-95 victory over the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA on Monday.
With James sidelined for the second game in a row due to an injured ankle, the Cavaliers sunk eight consecutive free throws as time wound down to hold off the charging Spurs. “This is a resilient team,” said Cavs coach Mike Brown. “We have a lot of capable players. The thing you look for is you want to make sure guys keep trusting one another. That trust factor was a big thing.” Cleveland’s Delonte West scored 10 of his 16 points in the fourth quarter, and Mo Williams added 17 and eight assists, to help the NBA’s top team improve to 50-15. Elsewhere in the NBA, Shawn Marion had a season-high 29 points and 14 rebounds as the Dallas Mavericks stretched the league’s longest active winning streak to 12 straight games with a 125-112 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves.
