NBA: Cleveland unstoppable, Wembanyama puts on a show
The Cavs off to their best start since the Warriors (2015/16)
.
Cleveland continues to impress. Thanks to a stunning performance by Mitchell (36 points), the Cavs also bent the Bulls’ resistance (119-113 the final), bringing their record to 12 wins and no losses. To find such a dazzling start, one has to go back to the Warriors of the 2015/16 season, those of the initial 24 wins (they would later close the season with a 73-9 record).
"It's good to be part of history. Nothing should be taken for granted, especially these feats. We are doing it in so many different ways. There'è always someone who, every time, sounds the charge. However, è always an effort from the whole team", Mitchell's words reported by ESPN.
Applause also to Wembanyama, an absolute star in San Antonio’s win over Sacramento (116-96). The Spurs all-star dominated far and wide, ending the game with 34 points, 14 rebounds and also six assists. A constant and devastating presence in the middle of the court.
In the other games of the night, OKC è got rid of the LA Clippers (134-128, 45 points from a spectacular Gilgeous-Alexander) while New Orleans è was beaten by Brooklyn (107-105). Excellent and important win also by Houston: 107-92 against Washington.
