CLEVELAND (AP) — LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers took the court at Quicken Loans Arena on Monday night for the first time since losing Game 6 of the NBA Finals in June.
The Cavs held their annual Wine and Gold scrimmage, and James, as he often does, got the crowd of 14,480 going with a trademark dunk. He scored six points in 12 minutes.
James called it "a great turnout," and said it was "unbelievable" that so many fans turned out on a Monday night.
In a callback to the Finals against Golden State, much of James' supporting cast was missing because of injuries, as well as a contract impasse. Kyrie Irving, Kevin Love and Iman Shumpert all sat out hurt, while Tristan Thompson is holding out for a long-term contract.
