Cleveland bench spark comeback win in Chicago to extend perfect start

CAVALIERS CONTINUE BULL RUN

The Cleveland Cavaliers are not planning to lose a game anytime soon in this National Basketball Association (NBA) season, as long as they keep persevering when things do not go their way.

On November 11, Donovan Mitchell scored 36 points as the unbeaten Cavs came from behind once more to preserve their 100 percent start to the season with a 119-113 road victory over the Chicago Bulls.

Cleveland, who overcame a 14-point deficit to beat the Brooklyn Nets on November 9, were again forced to dig deep, battling back from nine points down in the third quarter for a victory that takes them to 12-0 for the season.

Mitchell led another fine all-round offensive performance from the Cavaliers, who have emerged as the surprise package of the season and are the only undefeated team in the league.

Six Cleveland players finished in double figures, with point guard Darius Garland adding 17 points and Evan Mobley 15.

Caris LeVert, Georges Niang and Ty Jerome all had 12 points each off the bench.
