Donovan Mitchell Leads Cavaliers to Victory Over Timberwolves After Disappointing Loss

Cleveland rebounds from a tough defeat in Oklahoma City with a 124-117 win, maintaining their league-best record.

The Cleveland Cavaliers secured a 124-117 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves, capping off their three-game road trip.
Donovan Mitchell delivered a strong performance to atone for his lackluster showing in the previous game against Oklahoma City.
With the win, the Cavaliers improved to a league-best 35-6 record at the halfway point of the season, having only lost consecutive games once so far.
Minnesota relied on Anthony Edwards' offensive contributions and Rudy Gobert's defensive presence but struggled with consistency and a depleted roster.
Cleveland's interior duo of Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen played a key role in countering Minnesota's physicality and length, reaffirming their contender status.
