Brandon Paul finishes strong for the Cleveland Cavaliers

Cleveland had a rematch of the last three NBA Finals on Monday as they played the Golden State Warriors in the Las Vegas Summer League. This game wasn’t close as the Cavs defeated the Warriors, 91-74. The leader on the night was none other than former Illinois basketball player Brandon Paul.

Paul had a chance to play 20 minutes for Cleveland and in that time put up 21 points on 8-of-12 shooting from the field. He was also 4-of-7 from the three-point line as well. He isn’t just a one-trick pony, though. Paul also added in another 5 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal on the night.
