Cleveland Cavaliers at Milwaukee Bucks
· National Basketball Association
Mitchell's last-second jumper helps Cavs stay unbeaten with 114-113 win at Milwaukee
The 7-0 Cavaliers are one win away from matching their best start in franchise history. They won their first eight games in 1976-77.
Milwaukee has lost five straight since winning its opener. The Bucks wasted a brilliant performance from Damian Lillard, who had 41 points with nine assists and shot 10 of 15 from 3-point range.
Lillard had put Milwaukee ahead by hitting a step-back jumper with 9.8 seconds remaining.
Giannis Antetokounmpo had 34 points, 16 rebounds and nine assists for the Bucks.
The Bucks played without Khris Middleton, who hasn't yet made his season debut as he recovers from surgery on his ankles.
Bucks: After shooting a combined 17 of 73 on 3-point attempts in losses at Boston and Memphis, the Bucks were 18 of 39 from beyond the arc Saturday. Their hot start from long range helped them build a 16-point first-quarter lead. In the end, Lillard and Antetokounmpo didn't get enough help. The Bucks need more from Gary Trent Jr., who scored three points in 34 minutes.
