Mobley's game-high scoring came on 12-of-15 shooting and he also grabbed seven rebounds while Donovan Mitchell added 24 points and eight assists while James Harden contributed 17 points, seven rebounds and seven assists.

"Just a team effort throughout the roster," Cavaliers coach Kenny Atkinson said. "Everybody contributed. Credit to Evan. He kind of dominated the game. That stood out.

"That was really positive. You could feel the momentum, feel him playing better. He's playing more confidently and then James and him connecting on the pick and roll, that bodes well for us."

Mobley scored 16 of Cleveland's first 20 points as the Cavaliers rolled with 62% shooting from the floor (56-of-91) and scored 72 points in the paint.

Rookie Cooper Flagg led Dallas with 25 points.
