Donovan Mitchell and Evan Mobley propelled the Cleveland Cavaliers to a narrow 114-113 victory over the San Antonio Spurs, marking their third consecutive win. Mitchell scored 26 points, while Mobley contributed 25 points and 12 rebounds. The Cavaliers, holding a 62-15 record, are on the brink of clinching the best record in the Eastern Conference with just five games remaining in the regular season.

Cleveland initially surged ahead by 23 points in the second quarter, but the Spurs fought back, cutting the deficit to just one point in the final seconds. Despite their efforts, San Antonio couldn't convert a late layup from Harrison Barnes that would have secured a stunning comeback. Darius Garland added 19 points for the Cavs, as their well-rounded scoring kept them ahead until the very end.
