Cleveland is also shooting .494 from the field and .391 from the three-point line in that six-game span.

In 2016-17, the Cavaliers are an Eastern Conference-best 13-2 on the season, which is their best 15-game start in team history.

Cleveland is averaging 112.0 points in 2016-17 (2nd-best in NBA) and has scored at least 110 points in three straight games (seven overall).

Over that 10-game stretch, Love is shooting .467 (28-60) from deep and averaging 22.5 points and 12.1 boards.
