LeBron James scored 33 points to lead Cleveland, but was defended well throughout the game by Kyle Anderson.
The Spurs end the Rodeo Road Trip with a 2-4 record, but more important, get a win after a tumultuous week that included head coach Gregg Popovich revealing all-star forward Kawhi Leonard may not play again this season.
San Antonio returns home to host New Orleans on Wednesday at the AT&T Center. It's the first of three straight home games for the Spurs, who are battling for home court in the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
