Cleveland began the season 15-0 and had a 12-game run in December and January.
Coby White led the Bulls with 25 points. Talen Horton-Tucker scored a season-high 22 and Zach Collins had 20.
Cleveland closed within 58-57 at halftime and the game was close throughout the third quarter. It was 107-all midway through the fourth when the Cavs began a decisive 14-0 run. Allen scored six points during the burst, and Garland's 3-pointer made it 121-107 with 4:54 left.
Bulls: Chicago (24-38) has lost nine of 11 and fell to 11-22 at home but is still clinging to the final play-in spot in the Eastern Conference.
Mitchell surpassed 13,000 points for his career. He has a 24.8 points-per-game average over eight seasons.
Bulls: At Orlando on Thursday night.
