Jaylon Tyson pours in 39 as Cavaliers rally for win over 76ers

Tyson’s 39 points led a fourth-quarter comeback for the short-handed Cavaliers, capped by a decisive assist to Mobley for the game-winning dunk, securing a 117-114 road victory.

  • On Friday night, Jaylon Tyson scored a career-high 39 points, then fed Evan Mobley for a game-winning dunk with 4.8 seconds left, sealing a Cavaliers comeback over the 76ers.
  • Short-Handed and under pressure, Cleveland Cavaliers completed a two-game sweep in 48 hours without Darius Garland, Sam Merrill, Dean Wade, and Max Strus, relying on Craig Porter Jr., Lonzo Ball, and Tyrese Proctor.
  • Tyson was highly efficient, shooting 13 for 17 overall, including 7 for 9 on three-point shooting, converting all six free throws, and finishing with five rebounds and four assists in 38 minutes during his 22nd start.
  • Up next, the Cleveland Cavaliers return home Monday to face reigning NBA champion Oklahoma City Thunder, with players calling the win a springboard and Tyson considered for Most Improved Player of the Year.
  • Historically, Tyson's night ranks among the top five former Cal players, as Friday marked the 25th time Cleveland trailed after three quarters with De'Andre Hunter's clutch triple sparking a key rally.
