Cleveland held off Golden State 118-111 in an NBA matchup, winning by seven behind a balanced scoring attack and a decisive edge from three-point range. The Cavaliers shot 26-of-46 from the field (57.0%) and knocked down 16 three-pointers, while the Warriors finished 29-of-50 (58.0%) but went 12-of-44 from deep. Both teams were even on the glass with 46 rebounds apiece, but Cleveland generated more ball movement with 28 assists to Golden State’s 24. Donovan Mitchell led the Cavaliers with 25 points, setting the tone as Cleveland repeatedly answered Golden State runs. Max Strus provided a major perimeter lift with 24 points, and James Harden added 19 points as Cleveland consistently found scoring from multiple spots in the lineup. Golden State got standout production from Brandin Podziemski (25 points) and Gui Santos (25 points), keeping the Warriors within striking distance with efficient overall shooting. However, the Warriors’ high volume of three-point attempts (44) didn’t translate into enough makes to match Cleveland’s 16 threes, which ultimately created the separation on the scoreboard. Going forward, the Cavaliers can point to their spacing, three-point efficiency, and playmaking (28 assists) as indicators of a sustainable offensive formula. For the Warriors, the performance showed they can score efficiently inside the arc, but improving three-point conversion—or balancing shot selection—will be critical in close games against opponents who can win the math battle from beyond the arc.
