Golden State defeated Cleveland 99–94 on December 6 at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse in a defensive battle that fell well short of the 230.5-point Vegas total. Donovan Mitchell led the Cavaliers with 29 points while Evan Mobley added 18, but Cleveland's offense sputtered throughout, shooting just 34.6 percent from the field and making only 10 three-pointers. The Warriors' balanced attack featured P. Spencer with 19 points and G. Santos contributing 14, supported by a 25-assist performance that showcased their ball movement. Golden State's superior perimeter shooting—13 made threes on 38.4 percent accuracy—proved decisive, while their bench depth and defensive intensity (93.7 defensive rating) limited Cleveland's scoring opportunities. The Cavaliers' fourth-quarter surge, outscoring Golden State 32–27 in the final frame, came too late to overcome an early deficit compounded by a lopsided second quarter where the Warriors outscored them 33–18. Golden State's eight blocks and eight steals disrupted Cleveland's rhythm, and despite the Cavaliers' 61-rebound advantage, their 93.7 offensive rating reflected an inability to convert possessions efficiently. The loss marks a concerning trend for Cleveland's playoff positioning in a competitive Eastern Conference.
