The Houston Rockets continued to prove that they're a real threat this season when they beat the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday night, 109-108. Now 29-14, the Rockets have the fourth-best record in the league and are the only team with wins over the Cavaliers and Oklahoma City Thunder-- the best team in each conference with identical 36-7 records.

Cavs point guard Darius Garland explained on the Draymond Green Show about how him and Donovan Mitchell have worked together this season.

With the Cavaliers down two points, Darius Garland, their potential All-Star guard and 90 percent free-throw shooter, sat alone at the line with the chance to give Cleveland the lead. Even if he failed to make all three free throws, Cleveland, via a Flagrant One on the Rockets, would have the ball with a chance to seal the game.

Darius Garland has solidified his place in Cleveland Cavaliers history, achieving a remarkable milestone during the game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. With his performance, Garland surpassed John Bagley to claim the third spot on the Cavs’ all-time assists leaderboard.

Before the 2024-25 season started, Darius Garland thought about leaving the Cavaliers following their second-round exit from the playoffs.
