After Action Report

The Cavaliers snuck past the Raptors 108-103. The better team simply showed up tonight. Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Cavaliers. The Cavaliers bench chemistry carried them. The Cavaliers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
