Darius Garland knocks down game-winning free throws in final seconds as Cleveland Cavaliers end Toronto Raptors’ five-game winning streak with 102-101 victory
Darius Garland scored 21 points, including the game-clinching free throws with 4.8 seconds to play, and the Cleveland Cavaliers beat Toronto 102-101 on Friday to end the Raptors’ win streak at five games.
Toronto assembled a 12-point lead in the first half, stretching it to 15 in the third quarter, and led 80-74 to start the fourth. Anunoby was whistled for tripping Garland with 4.8 to go. Garland’s pair of free throws clinched the victory for Cleveland. All-star forward Pascal Siakam, who’s been recovering from off-season shoulder surgery, is expected to make his season debut next week.
The 28-year-old guard from Holland Landing, Ont., finally secured an NBA job after six years playing in Europe when the Cavs signed him in the off-season.
