De'Andre Hunter led Cleveland with 25 points while Donovan Mitchell scored 19 of his 21 points in the fourth quarter for the Cavs (10-6), who got 18 points from Evan Mobley, the reigning NBA Defensive Player of the Year who couldn't contain Sengun.
"I never back down from anybody," Sengun said. "Doesn't matter best defender in the league, anybody.
"At clutch time, I'm just going to go through him. I'm just going to get my shot and just finish the game."
Cleveland ended the third quarter on a 23-5 run to pull within 74-70 and Mitchell revived in the final 12 minutes but the Rockets would not be denied.
