Matthew Dellavedova sunk a pair of go-ahead free throws with 10.1 seconds remaining in overtime and the Cleveland Cavaliers knotted the NBA Finals at a game apiece with a 95-93 win over the Golden State Warriors.
The scrappy Dellavedova, filling in for the injured Kyrie Irving, then played stupendous defense on Stephen Curry at the other end, contesting a tough step- back jumper from the left baseline.
LeBron James, who recorded his fifth career triple-double in the NBA Finals, split a pair of foul shots with 4.4 seconds on the clock to give the Cavaliers a 95-93 lead.
Golden State, however, never got off a final shot as Iman Shumpert stole Curry's pass up the floor.
James finished with 39 points, 16 rebounds and 11 assists.
Game 3 is Tuesday in Cleveland.
