SACRAMENTO: Kevin Love’s four-point play with 1:32 left sealed the Cavaliers’ 120-111 victory Wednesday against the Sacramento Kings.
Love, mired in a 4-of-27 shooting slump from 3-point range in his last seven games, delivered the corner 3-pointer while he was fouled by Darren Collison. His ensuing free throw extended the Cavs lead to 115-108 with 1:31 left.
The Cavs missed nine consecutive 3-point shots prior to Love’s make and finished the game just 13-of-44 from deep (30 percent).
Kyrie Irving scored 30 points, LeBron James had 23 points, 11 rebounds and six assists and Love had 17 points and 10 rebounds.
