7. Jordan Clarkson sets career high vs. Brooklyn

Jordan Clarkson was a strong producer off of the bench for Cleveland all season. Averaging a career-high 16.8 points per game, Clarkson finished with the second-most bench points in the league behind only Lou Williams.

Clarkson’s scoring reached its peak in a triple-overtime thriller vs. the Brooklyn Nets. In this game, he erupted for a career-best 42 points, drilling 7-of-17 shot attempts from the 3-point line and finishing the game 16-for-34 overall.

JC hit numerous clutch shots to keep the Cavaliers in the game and was a huge reason the game went to three extra periods. Sadly, Cleveland did not walk away victorious, as the Nets won the game 148-139.

This showdown also featured an earth-shattering dunk from Marquese Chriss that nearly swayed the game in Cleveland’s favor. Chriss finished with a season-high 23 points and 10 rebounds.
