Mitchell upstages LeBron at home, Cavs down Lakers 116-102

Associated Press  

CLEVELAND — As a kid growing up in New York, Donovan Mitchell idolized LeBron James. Mitchell scored a season-high 43 points and Jarrett Allen returned from injury to add 24, leading the Cleveland Cavaliers to a 116-102 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers in James’ only visit home this season. “That’s a huge loss, obviously, with the way he’s been playing lately.” Without Davis clogging the middle, Allen, who missed the last five games with a bruised back, made his first 10 shots and helped the Cavs take a 57-49 halftime lead. “That’s a tall task — literally and figuratively.” The Cavs welcomed James back with a video tribute during an early timeout. TIP-INS Lakers: James’ 17 rebounds are his most in a road game.. Davis was limited to just 76 games over the previous two seasons due to injuries.. Los Angeles has not won a game that it did not lead at halftime, losing all nine.
