The Cleveland Cavaliers hosted the Milwaukee Bucks Monday night at the Quicken Loans Arena and gave their visitors a 124-117 loss. It’s the Cavs’ second win in a row and three in their last four outings. As usual, LeBron James played a huge part in Cleveland’s success, as he recorded a triple-double consisting of 40 points, 12 rebounds, and 10 assists.
James also had seven wows.
While conversing with a referee with just several seconds left in the game, James was caught by cameras making his best Owen Wilson impersonation by repeatedly saying “Wow.”
LeBron James likes to blow everyone’s mind with his nightly statistical assault, but this time around, it’s his own brain that got left frozen by the game’s officials.
In any case, James and the Cavs got the win and improved their record to 41-29. There is plenty of work left to do for Cleveland to lock up a playoff spot and a home court advantage in the postseason, as the team is still precariously sitting on the third spot of the Eastern Conference standings – just half-a-game in front of the Indiana Pacers and only a full game ahead of the Washington Wizards. The win over Milwaukee sets the Cavs up for a date with the Toronto Raptors this Wednesday at home.
James is averaging 27.3 points, 8.7 rebounds, and 9.0 assists per game.
There are no records of how many wows LeBron James exclaim each game, but he had at least seven more wows than Cavs guard George Hill had points against the Bucks.
Wow.
