NBA round-up…

CLEVELAND (AP) — LeBron James scored 32 points and the Cleveland Cavaliers made their first 11 three-point attempts, including nine in the first quarter, to rout the Atlanta Hawks 127-94 on Saturday night.

The Cavaliers became the first team in NBA history to go nine for nine or better from behind the arc in a quarter, according to information provided to the team by the Elias Sports Bureau.

James hit three three-pointers in the period, while Kevin Love and Joe Harris had two apiece. The Cavaliers set a team record by going 19 for 31 on threes.

Cleveland, who rallied from a 19-point deficit in the fourth quarter to beat Boston on Friday, needed no dramatics this time. The Cavaliers, who have won four straight, scored 41 points in first quarter, including 11 by James in the opening 3:34.

Paul Millsap scored 16 points for the Hawks, whose four-game winning streak ended.
