We all want to see Alperen Sengun play more. He makes the game fun to watch and we want to be excited about this team’s future. But on the bright side, his minutes are trending up: 14, 16, 22, 24 and 27 minutes in the last 5 games. – 10:39 PM

My goodness. #Cavs Kevin Love just nailed a 3 to give Cleveland 100 points to end the third quarter. Bench went crazy. They lead 100-63.
Cavs had a 45-point lead over Houston at one point during the third.
Darius Garland up to 21 points, Isaac Okoro with 20. – 8:54 PM

Through three minutes, every Rockets starter in the make-shift lineup has taken one shot and missed it. That’s balance. – 7:14 PM

No changes to injury report for Rockets-Cavs. Christian Wood and Evan Mobley both listed as questionable, though I’d think Wood is much closer to doubtful than questionable. His left knee has been sore for a while but has not kept him out. Flared up in past couple days. – 1:35 PM
