........................................................................................................................................................................Game Notes
• The Cavaliers clinched its first Central Division Championship in 33 years with a victory over the Sacramento Kings on Friday night. It is only the second division champ in franchise history.
• After the all star break, the Cavs are 12-2 altogether and are 8-2 on the road. With a victory on Sunday night at home (where the Cavs are 28-1), Cleveland will be 3 games ahead of Boston for the 1st seed in the East.
• The Cavs are done on the road against the West, they went 12-3. Also in three four-game road trips and this three-game trip this season, the Cavs went 12-3.
• Over the past two seasons, the Cavs are 0-3 at home coming off a West Coast road trip with just one day off.
• LeBron James' 51-point night in Sacramento on Friday marked the eighth time in his career that he has scored at least 50 points. None of the 50-point games have come in Cleveland. Two were in New York. The Cavaliers are 6-2 when LeBron scores at least 50 points.
• The Cavs are now 22-4 when James reaches double figures for points, rebounds and assists, and are on an nine-game winning streak in those games. He had 34 points, 10 rebounds and 13 assists in the victory over the Suns.
• The Cavaliers guard missed Friday's game against the Kings with a bone bruise in his lower back, the result of a rather nasty fall Thursday in Phoenix when he was undercut on a drive to the basket by the Suns' Steve Nash. West was feeling better Friday and is hoping to play Sunday when the Cavs return home to play the New York Knicks.
• Zydrunas Ilgauskas suffered a broken nose on Friday when Shaquille O'Neal elbowed him in the face, but he'll continue to play and not use a mask.
"I hate masks," Ilgauskas said. "Last time I had to wear one, I ended up throwing it into the stands."
• LeBron James has a left knee bruise contusion after banging into the Suns' Grant Hill, but will play through it as well. O'Neal also gave him a shot to his right leg in the game.
"A lot of guys wouldn't be able to get up from those hits," James said. "I'm blessed to have the frame to be able to get up from those hits, but I've felt better."
