Donovan Mitchell scored a season-high 37 points and the Cavaliers continued one of the best starts in league history, improving to 14-0 with a 144-126 win over the Chicago Bulls in an NBA Cup game.

Cleveland's superstar shooting guard drove to the basket with a wide-open layup. Instead of putting the shot in, he kicked it out to Evan Mobley, who was clearly not expecting the ball. Mobley fumbled it, and the 76ers took possession.

"It’s great to be a part of history," Mitchell said as Cleveland became just the eighth team in NBA history to win its first 12 games.

Mitchell's late scoring outburst helped the Cavaliers seal a 114-106 victory, improving to 13-0. According to Kevin Cooney of the Associated Press, Cleveland is the sixth team in NBA history to start 13-0.

Mitchell scored 23 points, pulled down 13 rebounds, and dished out nine assists, leaving him one dime shy of his first career triple-double. With less than two minutes to go and the Cavaliers nursing a seven-point lead, Mitchell drove aggressively to the basket—only to pass out of a wide-open look to center Evan Mobley in the corner.

On Wednesday night, the Cleveland Cavaliers survived a valiant effort from the terribly undermanned Philadelphia 76ers that was missing all three of its stars to extend their winning streak to 13 to start the season with a 114-106 win.
