After Action Report
The Cavaliers fended off the Lakers 102-93. The Cavaliers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Cavaliers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
