CLEVELAND, Ohio -- In the rare instances when Jose Calderon has been given a starting opportunity, he's capitalized, showing the feisty defense, team-first mentality, high basketball IQ, court vision and professional approach -- all of which made him general manager Koby Altman's first signing.

It happened again Saturday night, as Calderon helped the Cavs finish a tiring six-game road trip with a 114-109 win against the lottery-bound Chicago Bulls.

Getting a spot start, with Kyle Korver away from the team for a family emergency and Rodney Hood still dealing with an achy back, Calderon logged a season-high 36 minutes. He finished with nine points on 3-of-6 from the field to go with six assists and seven rebounds, as Cleveland outscored Chicago by six points while Calderon was on the floor. - CLICK HERE to read full story.
