LeBron James scored 39 points, grabbed 16 rebounds, and dished out 11 assists on Sunday as the Cleveland Cavaliers overcame a fourth-quarter collapse and outlasted the home-standing Golden State Warriors 95-93 in overtime to square the NBA Finals at one game apiece. This marked the first time that the first time that the first two games of the NBA's championship series both went to overtime. Matthew Dellavedova made two key free throws in the final seconds of the extra period to put the Cavaliers ahead to stay.
Klay Thompson paced the Warriors with 34 points. It was a rough night for Stephen Curry who scored 19 points but made only five of 23 shots from the field.
Here, we see LeBron shooting the ball against Golden State center Marreese Speights in the game's third quarter.
