The Cavaliers will face the Boston Celtics in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals on Tuesday, May 7, 7:00 PM ET, TNT/TruTV.

Donovan Mitchell totals 89 points in Games 6 & 7 this series, giving him the second-most total points in a Game 6 and 7 stretch in NBA history, previously:

* Donovan Mitchell: 89 points, 2024 Eastern Conference Round 1 vs Orlando
* Dominique Wilkins: 82 total points, 1988 Eastern Conference Semifinals vs Boston

With 39 points in today’s game, Donovan Mitchell totals the third-most points by a Cleveland Cavalier in a Game 7 in their franchise history.
* LeBron James – 45 PTS, CLE v IND on April 29, 2018 in RD 1

Paolo Banchero (21y, 175d old) scored 38 points in today’s Game 7. He sets a new mark for most points scored by a player 21 or younger in a winner-take-all Playoffs game, previously the three highest scoring games for a player who fit the criteria were:

* LeBron James (21y, 142d old) – 27 PTS, CLE at DET in the Semifinals on May 21, 2006
* Kobe Bryant (21y, 286d old) – 25 PTS, LAL v POR in the Conference Finals on June 4, 2000

Paolo Banchero is the ONLY player in Orlando’s franchise history to score 35+ PTS and tally 15+ REB in a Game 7 in their franchise history. Today’s game marks the fourth such Game 7 in Orlando’s franchise history.
