The Cleveland Cavaliers improved to 6-0 with a 120-109 victory over the Orlando Magic, marking their best start since 2016. Darius Garland led the Cavaliers with 25 points, while Donovan Mitchell contributed 22 points, continuing their strong performances under first-year coach Kenny Atkinson. The Magic played without All-Star Paolo Banchero, who is expected to be sidelined for at least a month due to a torn oblique, leading Jalen Suggs to score a career-high 28 points. The Cavaliers maintained a double-digit lead throughout the final quarter, despite a late push from Orlando. Cleveland's victory is a rematch of last season's playoff series, which they won in seven games. The Cavaliers are set to play the Milwaukee Bucks next, while the Magic face the Dallas Mavericks.
