After Action Report

The Cavaliers ran roughshod over the Kings 118-94. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Cavaliers cashed in. Cavaliers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Cavaliers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Cavaliers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Cavaliers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
