Donovan Mitchell cannot be stopped: Spiderman saves the day again as Cleveland Cavaliers destroy Brooklyn Nets for their 8th straight win

Spida is unreal at this point, as he is literally carrying his team to victory night in and night out. The team from Ohio is red-hot thanks to Donovan Mitchell’s heroics, and tonight he did it all to lead the Cleveland Cavaliers to an easy 118-95 win over the Brooklyn Nets at Barclays Center.

The Cavs have been the hottest team since the calendar turned 2024 and it’s all thanks to their 5-time All-Star. The 27-year-old shooting guard is having an MVP type season and is making Cleveland relevant again ever since hometown hero LeBron James departed for LA. This team is poised to make a deep playoff run with Mitchell running the show.

Tonight, he contributed on both ends of the floor, ending with 27 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assist, 3 steals, and 3 blocks. Jarrett Allen had 14 points, 10 rebounds, and 2 blocks while other big man Evan Mobley recorded 14 points, 12 rebounds, and 2 blocks. Darius Garland finished with 14 points and 7 assists.

The Nets were led by Mikal Bridges, as he scored 26 points to go along with 3 rebounds and 5 assists. Cam Thomas poured in 17 points while Trendon Watford had 15 points, 6 rebounds, and 2 blocks off the bench.

This win improves the Cavs to 34-16, making them 2nd in the Eastern Conference and 4.5 games behind the Boston Celtics. Cleveland is 9-1 over their last 10 games and currently on an 8-game winning streak. Their next game will be on Saturday night against the Toronto Raptors.

Meanwhile, this loss drops the Nets to 20-31, which makes them 11th in the Eastern Conference. Brooklyn is now 2 games behind the 10th seeded Atlanta Hawks for the last play-in spot. They are 3-7 over their last 10 games and currently on a 3-game losing streak. Their next game will be on Saturday night against the San Antonio Spurs.
