The Cleveland Cavaliers ( 31 - 12 ) held on Wednesday night to defeat the Minnesota Timberwolves ( 14 - 32 ) at Quicken Loans Arena , 114 - 107 . The Cavaliers took an eight - point lead into the fourth quarter and led by as many as 15 in the final frame , but a furious comeback effort by the Wolves closed the gap to 94 - 91 with just 6:5 to go . The Cavaliers responded with a 70 run that seemed like it would ice the game for sure , but another run from the Timberwolves closed the gap to 110 - 107 with just 16 seconds to play . A pair of LeBron James free throws and two missed three - pointers by the Wolves on the other end finally sealed the win for Cleveland . James finished with 25 points to lead the Cavaliers on a brutally efficient 11 - 15 shooting night . He completed his offensive dominance with a game - high nine assists , and he added four rebounds , a steal and a block . Tristan Thompson was a wrecking ball inside , as he scored 19 points on 8 - 10 shooting and pulled down 12 rebounds ( seven offensive ) . Matthew Dellevadova scored 18 as he knocked down four three - pointers , and he added seven assists to serve as a spark off the bench . Karl-Anthony Towns was fantastic in the losing effort , as he scored 26 points on 11 - 16 shooting and grabbed 11 rebounds for his third double - double in the past four contests . Andrew Wiggins added 20 and Zach Lavine came off the bench with an electric 21 points , six assists and four rebounds . The Wolves just could n't get anything going from the three - point line - - 4 - 16 compared to Cleveland 's 11 - 31 - - and that proved to be the difference . Minnesota will return home to face the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday . Cleveland continues their homestand Wednesday against Phoenix .
