Tough night in Charlotte for Cavaliers, fall 126-94

 Lone Starter in Double-figures

Sam Dekker has stepped into the Cavaliers starting line-up with Kevin Love out with an injury. Dekker has had an up and down start to his Cavs career, but Saturday night was his best in Cleveland. Dekker was the only Cavalier starter to score 10 or more points, as the former Wisconsin Badger scored 11.

Dekker was (3-10) the other night against he Denver Nuggets, so tonight was a good bounce back for the forward. He is taking the most of his opportunity in the starting line-up, as he seems to be getting more and more comfortable in the system. Dekker is the type of player that plays the game within himself, he knows what he does well and how he can best help the team. His history of playing without the ball should help the Cavaliers offense learn more of a flow as the season progresses.
