Warriors 108, Cavaliers 95: Klay Thompson hit six 3-pointers en route to a career-high 32 points and Jarrett Jack collected 26 points and 12 assists as shorthanded Golden State topped host Cleveland.
David Lee added 20 points and 13 rebounds for the Warriors, who were missing three starters and a key reserve. Andrew Bogut (ankle) is being eased back into the lineup and sat out the second night of a back-to-back while Stephen Curry (ankle), Harrison Barnes (knee) and Carl Landry (shoulder) are each day-to-day after suffering injuries in Monday’s win at Toronto.
Tristan Thompson recorded 18 points and 11 rebounds and Dion Waiters scored 18 as the Cavaliers had their season-long three-game winning streak come to an end.
The Warriors hit all five of their 3-point attempts in the second quarter as they began to take control. Jack started a 12-2 spurt with a jumper from beyond the arc and added a layup before handing out three straight assists to help give Golden State a 46-34 lead.
Thompson hit the Warriors' ninth 3-pointer in a row to start the game to spread the lead out to 72-57 with 6:05 left in the third quarter. Golden State would cruise into the final period with an 84-68 edge.
Cleveland briefly cut it to single digits at 97-89 with 3:26 left, but Jack hit another 3-pointer and the Warriors coasted to the finish.
GAME NOTEBOOK: Lee had his league-leading 19th game of at least 20 points and 10 rebounds and moved into first place with his 29th double-double. … Cleveland All-Star PG Kyrie Irving missed the morning shootaround due to an illness and struggled to 14 points on 5-of-17 shooting. … The Warriors finished 11-of-16 from 3-point range and shot 53.6 percent from the field overall to close their four-game road trip even at 2-2. … The Cavaliers had six players reach double figures, including Tyler Zeller (16), Marreese Speights (12) and C.J. Miles (10).
