The Cleveland Cavaliers made headlines with a stunning sweep of the Miami Heat, winning Game 4 by a historic 138-83 margin, marking the fourth-largest victory in NBA playoff history. The Cavs dominated the series, outscoring the Heat by a record 122 points across all four games, surpassing the previous playoff series record of 121 points. With their potent offense, which held the NBA's top offensive rating during the regular season, and a defense led by Defensive Player of the Year Evan Mobley, the Cavaliers now look formidable as they advance to the Eastern Conference semifinals.

Jarrett Allen emerged as a key contributor, recording a double-double with exceptional defensive plays that set the tone early in the game. Despite missing fellow All-Star Darius Garland due to injury, the Cavaliers demonstrated depth with six players scoring in double figures, including Donovan Mitchell and De'Andre Hunter leading the way. The impressive victory solidifies the Cavaliers' status as serious contenders to challenge the Boston Celtics and others in the race for the NBA Finals.
