STANFORD, Calif. -- Reid Travis scored 15 of his 19 points in the first half and Stanford made coach Jerod Haase a winner in his home debut with a 96-69 victory over Cal State Northridge on Tuesday night.Haase, who began his college playing career at Bay Area rival Cal, came to Stanford after four seasons as coach at Alabama-Birmingham. He replaced Johnny Dawkins, who got Stanford to the NCAA Tournament just once in eight seasons.It means everything to give him a win, Travis said, especially all the work weve put in, just building that relationship with him and the coaching staff.Haase called the experience awesome.Had a blast. The thing that continues to stand out in my mind is how much I enjoy coaching these guys, he said. Theyre so willing to learn and do what we ask of them.Travis missed the final 22 games of last season with a stress fracture in his leg but has come out of the blocks fast. He had career highs of 24 points and 17 rebounds in the Cardinals opening win over Harvard on Friday in Shanghai, China.Against CSUN, the 6-foot-8 junior made 6 of 9 shots from the field and converted 7 of 10 free throws, a big improvement from his 10-for-19 effort at the foul line vs. Harvard.Travis also showed the kind of hustle Haase was known for during his playing days at Cal and Kansas when he knocked over a half-dozen seats on the baseline while scrambling for a loose ball.Its definitely what he tries to instill to us, Travis said of the hustle. Toughness is one of our standards. When we get on the court, its full speed ahead.Marcus Sheffield added 17 points, Josh Sharma scored a career-high 15 and Dorian Pickens had 14 for Stanford (2-0).CSUN coach Reggie Theus said 20 turnovers were more than his team could overcome.We did a poor job of handling the double teams early in the game. That really got us off in the wrong direction, said Theus, adding that the Matadors defense was sporadic. A lot of times when things are not going well offensively, your defense suffers. Thats the mark of a team still trying to become a good team.Kendall Smith, who grew up an hour away from the Stanford campus, scored 17 points to lead CSUN (1-2).BIG PICTURECSUN: On the heels of an encouraging performance in a 102-87 loss at No. 16 UCLA -- a game that featured 14 lead changes -- the Matadors gave the ball away 20 times and were outscored 28-5 off turnovers.Stanford: The Cardinal made the long trek back from Shanghai, where it opened its season with an 80-70 win over Harvard, and showed little travel hangover. The Cardinal led by as many as 18 points in the first half and was up 31 points with less than 8 minutes left in the game.STAT OF THE NIGHT: Stanford was last in the Pac-12 last season in both 3-point percentage (.320) and 3-pointers made (.172) and was a quiet 1-for-6 from the arc against Harvard in its opener. But the Cardinal made eight of its first 12 shots from 3-point range and finished 9-for-16 against CSUN. Six different players made at least one, led by Sheffield, who was 3 for 4.UP NEXTCSUN returns home to play Saturday against Northern Illinois, which puts its 2-0 record on the line Wednesday against Idaho before heading to California.Stanford continues its three-game, weeklong home stand Thursday against Weber State, which dropped to 1-1 after a 69-68 loss at Pepperdine on Tuesday. Stanford better enjoy the home cooking while it can because it hits the road again for a Thanksgiving week tournament in Orlando, Florida beginning with a matchup vs. Miami on Nov. 24.

Can we get a one-way ticket to (minor-league) Hamilton for David Desharnais please. LeBron James has long been enamored with the idea of playing with veteran forward Mike Dunleavy.After James buddy Dwyane Wade made the stunning decision to return home to Chicago, LeBron got his wish.The Bulls sent Dunleavy to the Cleveland Cavaliers to help make room for the incoming Wade, a person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press on Wednesday.Shortly after Wade informed the Bulls that he was leaving Miami to return to play in his hometown, Chicago told Dunleavy he was headed to Cleveland. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the trade has not been officially announced.The 35-year-old Dunleavy averaged a career-low 7.2 points in 31 games for the Bulls last season. But he still shot 39 percent from 3-point range and gives the Cavaliers another versatile player who can stretch the floor as they look to defend the citys first sports championship in 52 years.That wasnt the only good news the Cavaliers got on Wednesday night. Veteran swingman Richard Jefferson announced that he will return to Cleveland on a two-year deal. Jefferson said after the Cavs won the title that he would call it a career, but the 36-year-old quickly changed his mind at the teams victory parade in downtown Cleveland and made it official on Wednesday night.Jefferson played a critical role in the Cavaliers run to the title, even starting some playoff games in place of Kevin Love when he was injured.Dunleavy became available when Wade deecided to leave Miami after 13 seasons to come home to the team he grew up idolizing.dddddddddddd He agreed to terms on a two-year, $47 million contract, according to a person with knowledge of the agreement. The big payout forced the Bulls to scramble to move some salary from their books.Dunleavy is under contract for $4.8 million next season. The Cavaliers can absorb his salary using a trade exception they received when they shipped Anderson Varejao out last season.The trade was first reported by the Chicago Tribune. The Bulls also traded point guard Jose Calderon to the Lakers to create the necessary cap space for Wade.Getting Dunleavy helps bolster Clevelands bench, a move that could be even more important after the Golden State Warriors, who squandered a 3-1 lead in the NBA Finals against James and the Cavs, landed superstar Kevin Durant in free agency.With four All-Stars and two MVPs on a team that won 73 regular season games last year, the Warriors look more imposing than ever.The Cavaliers dont have huge money to throw around and land similar reinforcements, so getting Dunleavy for free from the Bulls is a key move that the team likely could not have anticipate even earlier in the week.---AP Basketball Writer Tim Reynolds in Miami and AP Sports Writer Greg Beacham in Los Angeles contributed to this report.
