CLEVELAND—Lou Williams scored 36 points to spark Toronto over Cleveland 110-93 Saturday as the Raptors matched the NBA’s best record while stretching the Cavaliers’ losing streak to four games.
Kyle Lowry added 23 points while DeMar DeRozan added 20 as the Atlantic division-leading Raptors improved to 11-2, pulling level with the Memphis Grizzlies for the best record in the league.
The Cavaliers fell to 5-7, the team still trying to mesh the skills of four-time NBA Most Valuable Player LeBron James, star big man Kevin Love and Australian guard Kyrie Irving.
Love, who has struggled to blend in with his new teammates offensively since arriving from Minnesota last August, scored 23 points to lead Cleveland while Irving added 21 points.
James, who won two titles in four years with Miami before rejoining the Cavaliers last July, added 15 points and a game-high nine assists while Anderson Varejao contributed 13 points and 11 rebounds.
