CAVS (30-10) 117, GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS (11-25) 114
at Oracle Arena in Oakland, Calif.
Monday
TV: Fox Sports Ohio
RADIO: WTAM
WHAT HAPPENED: The Cavs used a near triple-double by forward LeBron James to nip pesky Golden State on Monday.
The Cavs are the first NBA team to reach 30 victories this season. They are also 2-1 on their five-game West Coast trip that resumes in Utah on Thursday.
James fired in a game-high 37 points, 11 assists and eight rebounds. He also blocked four shots.
The Cavs (30-10) rejected 10 shots in the game.
Their bench play was phenomenal and combined for a season-high 52 points and 23 rebounds. Anderson Varejao had 15 points, nine rebounds, two blocks and a steal for the Cavs.
Rapidly emerging forward Jawad Williams had a career-high 11 points.
NOTES: The Cavs’ 30 wins are the most in the NBA, and the team’s +6.8 point differential is the third largest margin in the NBA (Boston, L.A. Lakers).
-- After nipping Golden State on Monday, the Cavs have the third best mark in franchise history after 40 games. The best two records in team history are 32-8 (.800) last season and 31-9 (.775) 20 years earlier in 1988-89.
-- The Cavs have won their last four games against the Warriors and at Oracle Arena.
