Antawn Jamison and Anthony Parker hit big 3-pointers on consecutive possessions late in the fourth quarter Tuesday night and the Cleveland Cavaliers defeated the New Jersey Nets, 93-91, for their third straight victory – all on the road.
Jamison had 15 points and eight rebounds off the bench after missing three games with swelling in his left knee. J.J. Hickson had 18 points and 10 rebounds to give the Cavs tremendous production from the power forward position.
Jamison hit a 3-pointer over an outstretched Quinton Ross. Parker followed on the next possession, connecting on a heave over Travis Outlaw to beat the shot clock and give the Cavs an 89-82 lead with 1:29 to play.
Outlaw scored 27 points, Devin Harris added 18, Brook Lopez 16 and Troy Murphy grabbed 11 rebounds for the Nets, who lost their fifth straight after a 2-0 start.
The Cavs’ bench outscored their starters, 52-41. The teams meet again Wednesday night in Cleveland.
