The Cleveland Cavaliers are off to an unprecedented start in the NBA, winning their first 10 games of the season and setting a new league record. Under the guidance of head coach Kenny Atkinson, the Cavaliers have been dominating their opponents with a high-powered offense and a balanced team effort.

In their latest victory over the Golden State Warriors, the Cavaliers showcased their offensive prowess once again, scoring 136 points while holding their opponents to 117. Darius Garland led the charge with 27 points, closely followed by Evan Mobley with 23 points.

Atkinson's up-tempo style of play has been a perfect fit for Cleveland, as they currently lead the league in points per game at 124.5 and boast an impressive .526 field goal percentage. The team's depth has also been a key factor in their success, with multiple players contributing significant minutes without any one player dominating the court.

Despite their flawless start to the season, the Cavaliers remain focused on improvement. While they have consistently outshot their opponents, there are areas such as rebounding and turnovers that they aim to address moving forward. Players like Jarrett Allen and Donovan Mitchell have emphasized the team's commitment to continuous growth and development under Atkinson's leadership.
