CLEVELAND — Evan Mobley scored 22 points and Cleveland set a franchise record with 91 in the first half as the Cavaliers romped to a 144-101 romp over Dallas just hours after the Mavericks traded superstar Luka Doncic to the Lakers. Darius Garland added 17 points and the Cavs set a franchise record with 26 3-pointers. Hoping to return to the Finals, the Mavericks dealt the 25-year-old Doncic, a five-time All-Star and the face of their franchise to Los Angeles for Davis. The Mavericks played without Kyrie Irving and two other starters because of injuries. Jaden Hardy led Dallas with 21 points.
