Cedi, Cavs Close Out Blazers Late
It took the Cavaliers 70 games – a victory over Boston in mid-May – to win their 22nd game last year. And that was an improvement over the previous two campaigns.
In 2021-22, the Wine & Gold earned win No. 22 just one week into the new year – while snapping a skid in Portland that dated back to 2013 – pulling away late to drop the Blazers, 114-101, on Friday night at the Moda Center.
The Cavaliers tipped off a six-game West Coast trip in style – clamping down defensively in the fourth quarter as Cedi Osman caught fire from long-distance, drilling all four of his three-pointers in the final period as Cleveland improved to 11-8 on the road.
