CLEVELAND (AP) - Cleveland Cavaliers center Zydrunas Ilgauskas has passed the 10,000 career point mark in Saturday's game against Atlanta.
Ilgauskas, who has battled numerous foot injuries in his 11 seasons in the NBA, passed the mark when he made two free throws with 7:21 left in the first quarter.The 7-foot-3 Ilgauskas missed the entire 1996-97 and 1999-2000 seasons and played in only 24 games in 2000-01 because of injuries to his feet.
LeBron James, Brad Daugherty and Austin Carr are the only other players in franchise history to reach 10,000 points in their careers.
