Cleveland Cavaliers moved another step closer to their third NBA Finals in a row, after a comfortable 125-103 win over Toronto Raptors.
Last year's NBA champions now lead 2-0 in their Eastern Conference semi-final in the best-of-seven series. Cleveland remain unbeaten in the Playoffs with six wins in a row.
LeBron James top-scored once more, hitting 39 points in the win. He also moved up to second place in the all-time standings for most points scored in the NBA Playoffs. He passed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (5,762 points) on the list and is now just over 200 points off Michael Jordan (5,987 points).
James was dominant once more in a Playoff match, scoring almost double the amount than Kyrie Irving (22) did. The 32-year-old has now scored at least 30 points in five of this year's six Playoff matches.
