CLEVELAND — Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Collin Sexton made history Saturday as Cleveland took on the Oklahoma City Thunder at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse.
Sexton recorded 2,000 career points, becoming the third Cavalier in franchise history to reach that mark on or before age 21, joining LeBron James and Kyrie Irving.
“Young Bull” hit the milestone on a deep three-pointer in the second quarter.
Happy Birthday Collin!

What makes the milestone even more special is Sexton did it on his birthday. He turned 21 Saturday.
There’s no better way to celebrate a 21st birthday than by making history, after all.
