CLEVELAND – The NBA announced on Friday, December 1 that Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James has been named the Kia NBA Eastern Conference Player of the Month for games played in October and November 2017. This marks the 23rd time a Cavs player has earned Player of the Month honors and James’ 35th, the most in NBA history. It is the second straight year he has won the award in the opening month of an NBA season.

James and the Cavaliers closed out the month of November with 10 straight victories (Nov. 11-30). James appeared in all 22 contests (all starts) in October and November and averaged 28.0 points, 8.2 rebounds, 8.5 assists, 1.32 steals and 1.18 blocks in 37.0 minutes per game. He also shot .583 from the field and .425 from the three-point line. No other player in the NBA shot at least .550 from the field and .400 from beyond the arc while averaging at least 20.0 points. Among Eastern Conference leaders in October and November, James was tied for first in double-doubles (14) and triple-doubles (2), while also ranking first in field goals made (240), second in points per game (28.0), second in assists per game (8.5), fourth in field goal percentage (.583), eighth in blocks per game (1.18), 14th in rebounds per game (8.2), 15th in steals per game (1.32) and 19th in three-point percentage (.425). His 187 total assists were tops in the East.

The 13-time NBA All-Star was the only player in the NBA to average at least 25.0 points, 8.0 rebounds and 8.0 assists in October and November. He scored at least 20 points 18 times and 30 points or more nine times, which includes a franchise-record tying 57 points at Washington on Nov. 3 (the highest scoring game by any NBA player this season). In addition, the 6-8 forward shot at least .500 from the field in 20 of the 22 games in October and November, which includes 11 contests with a .600 field goal percentage or higher.

James reached numerous historical achievements and milestones throughout October and November. In the Oct. 25th contest at Brooklyn, he became the Cavaliers’ all-time leader in games played, passing Zydrunas Ilgauskas (771 GP). Less than a week later against Indiana on Nov. 1, James scored 33 points to become just the sixth player in NBA history to compile 400 30-point games (Michael Jordan-562, Wilt Chamberlain-515, Karl Malone-435, Kobe Bryant-431, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar-429). He had his second-highest scoring game of his NBA career in a 130-122 win at Washington on Nov. 3, when he finished with 57 points on 23-34 (.676) shooting, a perfect 9-9 mark from the foul line, 11 rebounds, seven assists, three steals and two blocks in 43 minutes. He set the franchise record for points by a Cavs player in regulation (prev. 56 by James on 3/20/05 at TOR) and set a franchise record and career high in field goals made with 23. It was his 11th 50-point game of his career, tying him with Allen Iverson (11) for the most all-time. Also that night, James registered his 800th straight double-digit scoring game (second-longest in NBA history), passed Shawn Marion (1,759 STL) for 18th in career steals and became the seventh player in league history to reach the 29,000-point mark, as well as the youngest to do so at 32 years and 308 days.

Against Brooklyn on November 22, James made his 1,500 career three-pointer, becoming the 26th player to ever reach that mark. James (10,663 FGM) closed out the month by climbing all the way to 10th place on the NBA’s all-time field goals made list, passing Kevin Garnett (10,505 FGM), John Havlicek (10,513 FGM) and Alex English (10,659 FGM).

Cavs Introduce New Court for 2017 Season

On September 7, 2017, the Cavaliers unveiled a new court reflecting the new logo suite.

We keep track of this stuff here.

New Cavaliers Court Design Features

The maple hardwood floor features a light stain throughout the entire court and is framed with a bold black perimeter. Black was officially introduced as a new and permanent addition to the Cavaliers color palette as part of the team’s updated brand. The color black is a nod to the historic turning point in the 2016 NBA Finals when the Cavs wore their black-sleeved uniforms in games 5 and 7 of the NBA Finals on their way to winning the NBA Championship. The lane is solid wine with bright gold accents.

Displayed at center court is the team’s recently introduced global logo, “The Shield,” which salutes Cleveland’s emergence, and the Cavaliers prominent brand presence within the international marketplace. Cavs games are broadcast in over 192 countries and 13 territories throughout the world in 47 different languages. “The Shield” is also a nod to the some of the most engaged and passionate Cavs fans, including Wine & Gold United (the team’s year-round season ticket based club).

A shaded silhouette of the Cleveland skyline is front and center on the bottom half of the court represents the pride and excitement the Cavs bring to the city and region, and the special bond that exists between the team, the fans and the community.

The baselines, painted in black, display the new aggressive “Cleveland Cavaliers” font in wine and gold with sharp edges that are inspired by the sword. “Quicken Loans Arena” can be read on each half court, and the east sideline features “Cavs.com” near the home bench with the team’s Twitter handle “@Cavs” at the visitor’s bench. The Cavs DNA statement “All for One. One for All.” is centered on the west sideline and will include the names of all Wine & Gold United members (the team’s year-round season ticket based club) within the letters.

Designed by the Cavaliers graphics team, the court was constructed by Cincinnati Floor Company in Cincinnati, OH. It is composed of 210, 4’ x 8’ pieces and 15, 4’ x 4’ pieces, and takes approximately one hour to assemble.

Cavs Trade Kyrie for Thomas, Crowder, Zizic and Pick

On August 22nd 2017 Kyrie Irving was traded to the Boston Celtics for PG Isaiah Thomas, F Jae Crowder, rookie C Ante Zizic, the Brooklyn Nets’ 2018 unprotected first round pick from the Boston Celtics and agreed to send a 2020 second-round draft pick via the Miami Heat.

Cavs Announce Association and Icon Jerseys
