It was the first triple-double for James in a Cavaliers uniform since May 13, 2010 and the 38th of his career. James previously had a triple-double in November, but the NBA took away an assist following a customary statistical review of Cleveland’s 118-111 win over New Orleans on Nov. 10.
With Sunday’s win, the Cavaliers are now 50-27 and four games up on Chicago in the Central Division.
