The Cleveland Cavaliers defeated the host Milwaukee Bucks, 114 - 108, in overtime at BMO Harris Bradley Center on Tuesday. Teams tend to show up when the Cavaliers come to their home building and that was just the case here. Cleveland actually led for the majority of the game, as Milwaukee had to ride a 22 - 16 fourth quarter to get to overtime. From there, the Cavs took over by wining the overtime, 14 - 8 and finished the game on a 70 run. The key for Cleveland was three - point shooting, as they went 17 - of - 40 from long distance in their win. Milwaukee actually dominated the shooting, as they went 46 percent from the field and held Cleveland to just 41 percent. Cleveland (20 - 6) had to play this game without Kevin Love, but they have two other players who are n't too shabby. LeBron James and Kyrie Irving carried the load, as they combined for 62 points, 17 rebounds and 12 assists in the overtime victory. James led the team with 34 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists, while Irving provided 28 points, five rebounds and five assists. The only other starter in double figures was Tristan Thompson, who totaled 10 points and 12 rebounds. Channing Frye led the bench, scoring 15 points, while adding three rebounds and two assists. Milwaukee (13 - 13) left it all on the floor in their home building, but it simply was n't enough against a better Cleveland team. Jabari Parker led the team in scoring, as he collected 30 points, nine rebounds and three assists in the defeat. Giannis Antetokounmpo got off to a slow start, but still finished with 25 points, 13 rebounds and three blocks before fouling out in the overtime. John Henson was the only other starter in double figures, as he accrued 14 points and eight rebounds. No bench player scored more than eight points or played more than 20 minutes. These teams will have a rematch on Wednesday in Cleveland to cap off their home - and - home set.
