Just days after dispatching the 2021 NBA champion Milwaukee Bucks, the Nets extended their winning streak to nine in survival mode via a 125-117 victory over the third-seeded Cavaliers on Monday night.
The nine-game streak marked the franchise’s longest-winning streak since 2004 — when current Nets head coach Jacque Vaughn was part of a team that won 14 in a row.
“We’ve gotta have the approach to every game the same way, same approach, same mentality, same unity,” said TJ Warren, who came off the bench and scored 23 points on 9-of-14 shooting from the field. “Everyone coming in and playing for one another. Let’s continue this streak.”
