Big win for the #Cavs, as they come back from a double-digit deficit to beat the red-hot Timberwolves 127-125.
Cleveland’s next 10 games won’t get any easier with Atlanta, Oklahoma City twice, Philadelphia again, New York twice and Miami on the ledger.

Jaden McDaniels just fouled out in overtime and then received a technical foul for arguing his sixth foul.
Cleveland is up 117-113 with 3:14 remaining in overtime.

Three straight buckets from Anthony Edwards. All mid-range. Basically automatic when he gets it off from there.
April retweeted
Peyton Watson's been huge defensively for the #Cavs and his block against Anthony Edwards to give Cleveland an opportunity to win it with 4.2 remaining is just one of four highlight blocks on the night for the newest Cavalier.

Huge tip-out by Evan Mobley to give James Harden the chance for his game-tying floater after Donovan Mitchell's 3-pointer missed.
#Cavs tie it 113-113 with 10.4 left.
April retweeted
Opposing teams aren't waiting until the playoffs to put James Harden in the action and attack him off the dribble. They are doing it three games into the regular season.
April retweeted
The #Cavs are on a 20-9 run in the third quarter and take a 70-69 lead with 4:29 left in the period.
Cleveland has forced five turnovers and been to the free throw line 10 times already in the quarter.
April retweeted
A much better second quarter for Peyton Watson. He's looked more decisive with his reads and attacking the basket at will, using his length and athleticism to challenge the Timberwolves at the rim on both ends of the floor.
April retweeted
Meleek Thomas is back in for a second stint. Neither Craig Porter Jr. nor Tyrese Proctor have checked in.

Checking in for the #Cavs at the next stoppage will be: Jaylon Tyson, Sam Merrill and rookie Meleek Thomas, who will make his first appearance at Rocket Arena.

After the #NBA bubble, former No. 5 pick Mario Hezonja fell out of love with basketball. He settled into an ordinary life, without preparing for another season.
Then, on his birthday in 2021, a call from his favorite European team changed everything.

The #Cavs and Koby Altman have been thinking about adding Mario Hezonja to the roster for over a year and a half before his eventual return.
And Hezonja had unfinished business in the #NBA.

Update to the Timberwolves' injury report:
Anthony Edwards is questionable with right knee injury management.
That would be a huge development for the #Cavs if Edwards, in the second night of a back-to-back, is unable to go.

That’s *the* Chris Brown, who was recently recognized in the Congressional Record.

Mario Hezonja thought his basketball career was over. The former No. 5 pick lost his love for the game, but rediscovered himself in Europe.
Now, he’s back in the #NBA, playing for the #Cavs with only winning on his mind.
“This is all what built me.”
