Tyrese Proctor recorded his first career triple-double with 24 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists as the short-handed Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Dallas Mavericks 127-117 on Saturday night.

Cleveland played without its entire usual starting lineup. Donovan Mitchell, James Harden, Evan Mobley, Jarrett Allen and Peyton Watson were all sidelined, and the Cavaliers only arrived home around noon after an FAA ground stop forced a Saturday-morning flight back from Miami. Proctor, starting in the revamped lineup, shot 10 of 19 and hit four 3-pointers, including back-to-back threes in the fourth quarter that gave Cleveland its largest lead at 113-91.

It was the first triple-double by a Cavalier since Max Strus on April 14, 2024, and Proctor set career highs in points and assists. All five Cleveland starters scored in double figures: Mario Hezonja had 22 points, Maleek Thomas scored 20, Thomas Bryant added 19 points and 11 rebounds, and Jaylon Tyson scored 18.

After a 33-33 first quarter, Cleveland won the second quarter 38-20 to lead 71-53 at halftime and held off a Dallas rally in the third.

Kyrie Irving scored a game-high 34 points with six rebounds and five assists in his return to Cleveland for Dallas (7-6). Cleveland improved to 7-7.

Norman Powell scored 23 points as the Chicago Bulls beat the Minnesota Timberwolves 117-106 on Saturday night, ending Minnesota’s five-game winning streak.

Matas Buzelis added 18 points and nine rebounds for Chicago, and Buddy Hield and Tre Jones each chipped in 16 points off the bench. The Bulls won for the second straight night despite a travel day scrambled by the nationwide FAA ground stop, which delayed their arrival in Minneapolis until the day of the game, and despite missing Caleb Wilson, Jalen Smith and Nic Claxton.

Chicago led 29-17 after the first quarter and 58-45 at halftime. Minnesota’s 17 points in the first quarter were its lowest-scoring quarter of the season, and the Timberwolves failed to reach 110 points for the first time this season.

Ayo Dosunmu scored a team-high 24 points against his former team for Minnesota, LaMelo Ball had 19 and Jaden McDaniels added 18. The Timberwolves missed their first 13 3-point attempts and finished 9 of 38 from long range, while Chicago scored 54 points in the paint.
