Cavs Score 11th Straight Win


The Cavaliers matched a franchise record with their 11th straight win (second such streak this season) as LeBron James led six players in double figures with 25 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists. Mo Williams scored 22 points for the Cavaliers, but sprained the pinkie on his right hand early in the fourth quarter and did not return. X-rays were negative. "I could've come back, but the game was out of reach," Williams said. "It's sore and everything is all right. I'll be ready to play Sunday." The win improved Cleveland to 34-1 at home this season and 14-1 in March. The Cavs are 33-0 when scoring 100 or more points this season. Cleveland, which set a franchise mark for victories in a season Wednesday, will go for its 60th win Sunday against Dallas at home, where the Cavaliers are 34-1. Cleveland leads Boston and Orlando by five games for the best record in the Eastern Conference.
