Dion Waiters goes OFF, hits seven 3-pointers vs Clippers
If this works, if this slow and steady plan to build through the draft actually works and the Cavaliers eventually become an Eastern Conference power again, this will be remembered as the night it all started to fall into place.
Dion Waiters making seven 3-pointers and scoring a career-high 28 points, Kyrie Irving sticking the dagger 3-pointer in the final minute and strutting toward the Cavs’ bench with his arms outstretched. As the stunned Clippers staggered to their bench following a timeout, the two young Cavs’ stars met at halfcourt and celebrated with a leaping chest bump.
Irving and Waiters, two young stars with a combined age of 40, teamed up to score 52 points in the Cavs’ 108-101 victory over the Clippers on Monday. There were times Waiters ran the offense and times he deferred to Irving.
