David Lee had 29 points and nine rebounds as the Golden State Warriors survived a poor outing from Monta Ellis and the continued injury absence of Stephen Curry to beat the Cleveland Cavaliers at The Q 105-95 on Tuesday. Cleveland, led by Antawn Jamison (19 points, five rebounds) and Kyrie Irving (18 points, eight rebounds, five assists) led for much of the third quarter and held a small lead briefly in the early fourth. But Lee dominated the final frame with 13 points on 6-8 shooting to carry the Dubs away.
Warriors Vs. Cavaliers: David Lee Leads Golden State To Another Road Win

Ellis shot just 2-12 from the floor and registered four turnovers to three assists. Turnovers were no strangers to the Cavs, either, as Irving picked up six and Cleveland coughed a painful 23 in 98 possessions.
Golden State rookie Klay Thompson had perhaps the best game of his young career, hitting four threes en route to 14 points in 16 minutes off of the bench.
