Fri Dec 27 02:50:00 UTC 2024: **Cavaliers Center Jarrett Allen Sinks Half-Court Trick Shot, Team Remains Unbeaten in December**
CLEVELAND, OH – Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen amazed the home crowd at Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse Monday night with a stunning half-court trick shot, a pre-game warm-up that showcased the team’s high spirits. The shot came during a delay in the game against the Utah Jazz, caused by a problem with one of the baskets.
Allen, averaging 13.2 points and 10.1 rebounds per game this season, has been a key contributor to the Cavaliers’ incredibly successful start to the 2024-25 NBA season. The team boasts a phenomenal record, having won 15 straight games to begin the year and only suffering one defeat in December. The All-Star center, acquired from the Brooklyn Nets in 2021, is in his fourth full season with Cleveland and earned Defensive Player of the Year votes last season.
The Cavaliers’ strong performance has them eyeing a top spot in the Eastern Conference as the playoffs approach. The team enjoys a three-day break before embarking on a four-game road trip, beginning Friday against the Denver Nuggets. Despite four losses overall, the team’s positive momentum remains undeniable.
