What CLE allows by positionPoints, rebounds, assists and threes this defense has allowed to guards, forwards and centers a game, its place among the league's defenses (counted from whichever end is nearer) and how far that sits from the average defense. Soft or Tough: in the league's top or bottom third and 10%+ from the average defense. Leans: 5%+ from it. Average: closer than that. The window runs back into last season early in a year.

Shot typesHistory
2026–27, 11 games · points a game by shot type · scores: #1 = the most; allows: highest number = softest
| Type | CLE scores | CLE allows |
|---|---|---|
| Spot-up jumpers | 30.6 #5 | 28.0 #18 |
| Free throws | 18.5 #18 | 17.9 #10 |

From play-by-play: transition = the first shot within 7 seconds of a defensive rebound, turnover or opponent score; putback = within 3 seconds of the team's own offensive rebound; the rest by the shot label (spot-up = the plain jump shot). Free throws from the box score. Green marks a strength (scores a lot, or allows little), red a weakness; hover a number for the league average. An approximation of play types, not tracking data.
