The Cleveland Cavaliers are running one of the league's top offenses this 2025-26 season, even with injuries and rest days, forcing lineup changes. Guard Sam Merrill and Jalen Tyson have emerged as key sparks, ranking 2nd and 3rd in 3-point shooting percentage across the NBA. Merrill's hitting 46.1% from deep, while Tyson's at 45.8% all without being primary scores. This sharp shooting has fueled comebacks and late surges against opponents.

Meanwhile, Harden's connecting on nearly 3 of 6.3 attempts at 45.6% and forward Dean
