CLEVELAND: LeBron James scored 28 points, grabbed eight rebounds and passed out eight assists against his former club on Wednesday (Thursday in Manila) to spark the Miami Heat over the host Cleveland Cavaliers 95-84.
James, the reigning NBA Most Valuable Player, guided the two-time defending NBA champions to their eighth victory in a row as well as Miami’s eighth consecutive victory in matchups against the Cavaliers, the home-area club James played for until leaving for the Heat in 2010.
