The Cavaliers shot 58.2% from the field as a team, their second-highest field goal percentage in a game so far this season.Two reasons why the Wine and Gold fared so well against the Hawks on Thursday night were Darius Garland and Evan Mobley.

Cleveland Cavaliers star Darius Garland remains crucial as they prepare to face the Mavericks, despite not being on the injury report. They will miss Dean Wade and Isaac Okoro, with Caris LeVert and Craig Porter Jr.

The Cavaliers stormed back to tie the game at 107 with just seconds remaining and had a chance to tie or win the game on the final possession with the Rockets leading 109-107. Bizarrely, Rockets forward Tari Eason fouled Darius Garland on a 3-point attempt, giving the Cavaliers sharpshooter a chance to tie or win the game at the line.

Darius Garland scored 26 points and Evan Mobley had 16 points and 10 rebounds after both were named All-Star reserves, helping the NBA-leading Cleveland Cavaliers to a 137-115 win over the Atlanta Hawks.

It's the second career All-Star nod for Garland and the first for Mobley. They'll join teammate Donovan Mitchell, who was elected as a starter last week.

Before the 2024-25 season started, Darius Garland thought about leaving the Cavaliers following their second-round exit from the playoffs.

Darius Garland scored 22 points, Donovan Mitchell added 21 and the Cleveland Cavaliers snapped a season-high, three-game losing streak with a 110-91 win over the Detroit Pistons.
