The Cleveland Cavaliers have staged a stunning comeback to sink the Denver Nuggets 125-109 at the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio.

The visitors took full advantage of the defending NBA champions’ shaky start, as they won the first quarter 33-28.

The hosts, however, imposed their rhythm from then onward and turned the tables on the Nuggets as they went on to grab the next three frames to cruise to a 16 point victory over Denver.

LeBron James and Kyrie Irving each had 27 points in their sides’ triumph while Nikola Jokic scored 27 points for the Nuggets.
