in the first half in a 137-125 win over Portland on Nov. 23. The Cavs finished with a Quicken Loans Arena regular season record for three-pointers in a single game, knocking down 21-36 (.583) shots from deep.

o DOUBLE-DIGIT THREE-POINT RECORD TO START SEASON: Cleveland made at least 10 three-

pointers in their first 16 games of the 2016-17 season, setting an NBA record for consecutive games with 10 or more triples to start a season (prev. held by Houston, first eight games in 2014-15).

HIGH Q: Cleveland has the best home record in the NBA at 18-3 (.857). The Cavs are averaging 112.8 points at The Q, which includes six contests with 120 points or more. Since March 25,

2014, Cleveland holds a 71-5 record when scoring at least 100 points at The Q (17-1 this season). They have also won 39 straight home games when shooting at least .500 from the field (8-0 this season).

o THE Q VS. THE WEST: The Cavs have won 27 of their last 31 home games against the Western Conference (7-1

in 2016-17).

o 128 POINTS IN CONSECUTIVE GAMES: The Cavs have had back-to-back games with 128 points on two

occasions this season (Nov. 1-3 and Nov. 23-25, all at home). Prior to this season, Cleveland has never had consecutive games with at least 128 points. (Elias Sports Bureau)

o 137 POINTS IN REGULATION: The Cavs had a high scoring night at home against Portland on Nov. 23, scoring

137 points, the most any team has ever scored in regulation at The Q (prev. Golden State, 132 on 1/18/16). The last time Cleveland has reached that mark in any game was 4/9/92 against Charlotte (141 points). The Cavs also scored 81 points in the first half, which were just two shy of the franchise record for any half (83 in 2nd H on 1/19/93 vs. Indiana). Cleveland tied the franchise record for points in a quarter with 46 points in the first period versus Portland.

o 50-40-90: In a 128-90 home win over Dallas on Nov. 25, Cleveland shot over 50% from the field (.506), 40% from the three-point line (.465) and 90% from the foul line (.917). It

marked just the fourth time since the 2000-01 season the Cavs have had a 50-40-90 game (4/5/16 vs. MIL, 3/13/07 vs. SAC, 12/11/01 vs. HOU).

o 86.7% FROM THE FIELD IN A QUARTER: In a 128-120 home win over Houston on Nov. 1, Cleveland scored 43 points in the fourth quarter, which was three points shy

of their team record for points in a period (46, three occasions). In the final period, the Cavs shot 13-15 (.867) from the field, which was their highest field goal percentage in a quarter since Dec. 15, 1999, when they went 15-17 (.882) in the fourth at New Jersey. (Elias Sports Bureau)

o UNDEFEATED AT HOME ON XMAS: By defeating Golden State on Christmas Day (109-108), the Cavaliers improved to 6-0 at home all-time on Christmas Day, which is

the best home record of any NBA team on Christmas (Miami is 5-0).

40 FAST BREAK POINTS: The Cavs had a season-high 40 fast break points in their 102-101 road win over Philadelphia on Nov. 5, their most since the NBA began tracking the stat in 1996-

97. (Elias Sports Bureau)

TOP NOTCH TRIO: Kyrie Irving (24.2), LeBron James (26.1) and Kevin Love (21.7) are averaging a combined 72.0 points per game. The Cavs are one of two teams in the NBA with three players

averaging at least 21.0 points in 2016-17 (GSW). The three Cavs players have scored at least 20 points apiece in the same game 10 times this season (9-1 record). Since the beginning of the 2014-15 season, the trio of Irving, James and Love have each scored 20 points or more in a regular season game 20 times (18-2 record).

20+ IN THREE STRAIGHT GAMES: Irving, James and Love each scored at least 20 points in three straight games from December 5-9. The last Cavs trio to have 20 points or more in

three straight games were Austin Carr, John Johnson and Bingo Smith in games played in February 1972 (2/23/72 to 2/27/72). (Elias Sports Bureau)

30-POINT DOUBLE-DOUBLES: According to the Elias Sports Bureau, Kyrie Irving (32 points, 12 assists) and Kevin Love (30 points, 15 rebounds) became just the fourth duo in Cavs

history to post a double-double and score 30 or more points in the same game in a 124-118 win over Boston on Dec. 29. It also happened in 1971 (Walt Wesley and Butch Beard), 1980 in a quadruple-overtime game (Randy Smith and Dave Robisch) and 1991 (Brad Daugherty and Larry Nance).

DEEP FRYE: Channing Frye has been solid this season, averaging 9.7 points (4th-best on the team) and 3.1 rebounds in 19.0 minutes. He is also shooting .459 from deep, which ranks 3rd in

the NBA. Frye has scored in double figures on 16 occasions in 2016-17, including a season-high five straight games from Dec. 20-26, and ranks 23rd in the NBA in points per game among bench players (9.9 ppg in 29 games off the bench).

5 3FGS IN CONSECUTIVE GAMES OFF BENCH: Frye became the first Cavs player to convert at least five three-pointers off the bench in consecutive games since Dan

Majerle had three such games in a row in April 1996. (Elias)
