LOS ANGELES: The Cleveland Cavaliers, fuelled by 34 points from Darius Garland and 33 from Jarrett Allen, notched another big NBA victory on Friday, outlasting Western Conference contenders Minnesota 113-104 in overtime.
The Cavs, who overturned a 22-point fourth-quarter deficit to stun the league-leading Boston Celtics on Tuesday, held on for the win over a Timberwolves team that came in as Western Conference leaders but finished the night half a game behind the Oklahoma City Thunder – who beat the Miami Heat 107-100.
