Cleveland dropped a tough, close game in Brooklyn on Friday night to wrap-up the road portion of the regular season schedule, 118-107. A 19-point first and fourth quarter hurt Cleveland, as a 35-point second and 34-point third quarter got the Wine & Gold back in to things. Evan Mobley returned to the lineup after a five-game absence, and picked up where he left off, with 17 points, seven rebounds, and two blocks and steals. Kevin Durant led all scorers with 36 points.
Darius Garland was just as good as Durant, scoring 31 points of his own on 12 made shots, but he only handed out three assists.
