With Sunday's 128-114 win over the Charlotte Hornets, the Cleveland Cavaliers improved to 15-0, tying for the second-best start in NBA history. The 1948-49 Washington Capitols and, more recently, the 1993-94 Houston Rockets also started their respective seasons with 15 straight wins.

At 15-0, these Cavs have tied the second-longest winning streak to start a season in NBA history, equaling the streak by the 1993-94 Houston Rockets. That Rockets team, led by Hakeem Olajuwon, eventually won the NBA Finals.

The Cleveland Cavaliers just keep on winning! Their winning streak has now reached a historic 15 games with their latest victory over the Charlotte Hornets, 128 -114. Only four other groups in NBA history have won this many games to start the season.
