After Action Report
In Golden State, the Warriors outlasted the Cavaliers 116-108. The Warriors won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Warriors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Warriors owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Warriors locker room is humming, and it showed. The Warriors rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
