CLEVELAND, Dec. 9 (UPI) -- LeBron James scored 31 points in 30 minutes and set Cleveland's all-time steals record Tuesday in a 114-94 win over Toronto.
James picked off a Jose Calderon pass in the first minute of the game for his 735th career steal, passing Mark Price, who recorded 734 steals in nine seasons and 588 games with the club. James -- who sat out the fourth quarter because of the team's large lead -- accomplished the feat in six seasons and 412 games. He finished with three steals to push his mark to 737.
Zydrunas Ilgauskas also set a team record, pulling down a franchise-best 5,230 rebounds.
It was Cleveland's ninth straight victory and 17th in 18 games.
Calderon tied a franchise record for the Raptors, hitting on all five free-throw attempts -- including three technical foul shots -- to give him 51 consecutive.
