Dubs Big Fourth Sink Shorthanded Cavs

For three quarters, the Wine & Gold gave the NBA’s top squad all it could handle. But for the second straight night, the shorthanded Cavaliers simply ran out of gas down the stretch.

Cleveland led by 13 points after 36 minutes of play, but Steph Curry and Co. caught fire over the final 12 – outscoring the Cavs, 36-8, in the fourth quarter to take the 104-89 decision on Thursday night at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse.

The list of walking wounded grew even larger headed into Thursday’s contest – with Cedi Osman (lower back spasms) as a late scratch, joining Collin Sexton, Evan Mobley, Jarrett Allen, Lauri Markkanen and Lamar Stevens on the shelf for Cleveland.
