This is his third year with the Cavs and his best yet, showing off both his offensive and defensive skills as well as his leadership capabilities too.
As for the Cavaliers, they haven’t been this great in years.
They remain the top seed in the East, although the Boston Celtics have been sneaking up behind them and getting closer.
