When it rains, it pours for the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The trio of Max Strus, De'Andre Hunter, and Ty Jerome all waxed hot from deep, taking charge in a 122-82 Cavaliers romp of the Orlando Magic that extended their winning run to eight games, Wednesday, February 27.

Strus, Hunter, and Jerome finished with a combined 54 points and hit 13 of Cleveland's 19 threes overall. All-Star Evan Mobley also made his presence felt with a 17-point outing as Cleveland improved to a league-best 48-10 record, winning eight consecutive games for the third time this season.

Big-time block right into an emphatic poster!
Look at @spidadmitchell on the bench 🤣
Meanwhile, Paolo Banchero anchored Orlando’s offense with a team-high 24 markers but the Magic got punched in the mouth early and never recovered to drop to an even 30-30 card.
Cleveland aims to extend their winning streak to nine when they visit the defending champion Celtics (42-16) in Boston, while Orlando tries to bounce back against the Golden State Warriors (30-27).
