Mitchell Shines with 27 Points as Cavaliers Dominate NBA Cup Champions

Cleveland Beats Milwaukee and Stays Unstoppable at Home

Donovan Mitchell scored 27 points, and Darius Garland added 16, as the Cleveland Cavaliers secured an impressive 124-101 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks, the current NBA Cup champions. This victory came in the Bucks’ first game since their NBA Cup win, and with it, Cleveland improved its home record to a remarkable 15-1.

Lillard’s Absence and Its Impact on the Bucks

The Bucks, playing without their star Damian Lillard due to a calf strain, couldn’t keep up with a Cleveland team playing at its best. Coming off a recent NBA Cup victory, Milwaukee still seemed to feel the effects of fatigue.

Giannis Antetokounmpo, who scored 33 points and grabbed 14 rebounds, fought to keep his team in the game, but Cleveland dominated the matchup. Additionally, the Bucks couldn’t rely on the offensive support of their starting guards, Andre Jackson Jr. and AJ Green, who ended the game with a combined 0 for 9 shooting performance.

Cleveland Keeps Rolling: 24-4 on the Season

The Cavaliers showed why they are one of the strongest teams in the league with a 24-4 record, the best so far. The key to their victory was their incredible performance beyond the arc, making 20 three-pointers—a crucial element of their game. Evan Mobley also contributed 15 points, rounding out a collective win that proves Cleveland is still one of the most dangerous teams in the NBA.

NBA Odds: Who Will Be the Next to Beat the Cavs?

The NBA Odds suggest that Cleveland is playing at its peak, but can they maintain this level of play? Bettors who have been closely following the Cavaliers know they’re on an unstoppable streak, and each game seems to offer more opportunities to bet on their success. With such a strong lineup, the Cavaliers remain a team to watch for future bets.

Key Moments of the Game

One of the most exciting moments came at the end of the third quarter when Max Strus, who made his season debut after an ankle injury, hit a crucial three-pointer. Then, Caris LeVert capitalized on a Milwaukee mistake, stealing the ball and assisting Mitchell, who buried a three-pointer at the buzzer to extend Cleveland’s lead to 27 points with just 1.1 seconds left.

Upcoming Games

The Bucks will return home on Saturday to face the Washington Wizards, while Cleveland, with a packed schedule, will also play against the Philadelphia 76ers in a back-to-back game. The NBA Odds for these matchups are already generating great anticipation, especially with the Cavaliers continuing to perform at such a high level.
