The Cleveland Cavaliers continue to dominate at home, boasting the best home record in the NBA. In their latest game, they defeated the San Antonio Spurs 124-116, marking their sixth three-game winning streak of the season. Despite fatigue from a long road trip, players like Jarrett Allen and Donovan Mitchell stepped up significantly. Hosts Ethan Sands and Jimmy Watkins discussed the impact of the Cavs' challenging schedule on player performance and noted that fatigue was evident during the first half of the game. However, the team rallied to display a strong offensive performance in the second half. Allen's pivotal contributions helped secure the victory, while Mitchell showcased improved playmaking abilities.
