Xinhua, November 14, 2016 Adjust font size:

LeBron James scored 11 of his 19 points in the fourth quarter as the Cleveland Cavaliers rallied for a 100-93 win over the Charlotte Hornets on Sunday.

"It was good we were able to close the game out. We got stops and we made shots," James said.

Channing Frye had a season-high 20 points. Kyrie Irving scored 19 points and Kevin Love added 17 for the Cavaliers.

On the Hornets side, Kemba Walker had a team-high 21 points, Marvin Williams finished with 16 points, and Nicolas Batum added 15. The Hornets have now lost two straight after starting the season 6-1.

Charlotte led 72-71 after three quarters, but Cleveland surged a run to usurp the lead on 89-80 midway through the fourth quarter. Charlotte cut the deficit to 94-90 before James bagged a 3-pointer and a free throw to put the game beyond reach for Charlotte. Endit
