4. Love’s 29 Points on Feb. 21, 2016

Love may have recorded his first 29-point game with the Cavs, but it wasn’t his last. Not one month later against the Oklahoma City Thunder, Love scored 29 points on 9-of-18 field goals for 50 percent and 11-of-12 for 92 percent from the free throw line. He added 11 rebounds (three offensive, eight defensive), four assists and a plus/minus of plus-24.

Kyrie wasn’t playing in this game as he had a bad run-in with bed bugs, so the Cavs needed Love, especially against such a formidable opponent as the Thunder. Fortunately, Love stepped up to the challenge and the Cavs walked away with a huge 115-92 win.
