The Cleveland Cavaliers continued their sensational start to the NBA season, defeating the Charlotte Hornets to secure a perfect 15-0 record. In a game that showcased their depth and resilience, the Cavaliers demonstrated why they are quickly becoming the team to beat in the league this season.
The Cavs’ dominance was on full display, with standout performances from their key players. All-Star guard Donovan Mitchell led the scoring charge, delivering a dazzling combination of three-point shooting, drives to the basket, and impeccable court vision. His leadership on both ends of the court energized his teammates and kept the Hornets’ defense scrambling.
Supporting Mitchell, Darius Garland orchestrated the offense with precision, racking up assists and setting up plays that consistently broke down Charlotte’s defensive schemes. Cleveland’s frontcourt also stood tall, with Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen controlling the boards, protecting the rim, and making crucial defensive stops.
Despite a spirited effort from the Hornets, who were led by standout play from LaMelo Ball, Charlotte couldn’t find a consistent rhythm to challenge the Cavaliers’ well-oiled machine. The Cavs’ ability to rotate defenders, switch seamlessly, and convert turnovers into fast breaks proved decisive.
This 15-0 record marks the best start in Cavaliers’ franchise history, signaling their readiness to contend for the championship. The team’s chemistry, depth, and balanced attack make them a formidable force in the league, and fans are hopeful this momentum will carry them deep into the postseason.
