After Action Report
In Cleveland, the Cavaliers survived the Lakers 98-93. The Cavaliers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Fresh off a statement win, the Cavaliers stayed locked in; Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
