In Friday’s Brotherhood Playoff Action, Toronto eliminated Cleveland in overtime, 112-110, Detroit roared back to shock Orlando, 93-79, and Los Angeles eliminated Houston, 98-78.
The big story of the night was RJ Barrett’s magnificent game-winner against the Cavaliers. Barrett didn’t shoot well overall, just 8-21/4-12, but he hit the only shot that people will be talking about. He also pulled down 9 rebounds, and passed out 3 assists.
Orlando led 62-38, and somehow let the Pistons come back to win
by 14. The Magic missed 23 straight shots in the second half. That’s atrocious.
Detroit ripped off a 35-5 run during that stretch of futility. Paolo Banchero finished 4-20 from the field. He did grab 10 rebounds, but Orlando missed 51 shots, so there were plenty to go around.
Not for Wendell Carter, though: while he shot better (3-5), he only scored 9 points and had 0 rebounds.
After a great start to the series against the Rockets, Luke Kennard moved back to the bench once Austin Reaves was available. He got 29 minutes, but shot just 1-6 for three points.
With Cleveland’s loss, Tyrese Proctor is out of the championship hunt. On Saturday, Boston hosts Philadelphia at home in Game 7, and we’ll find out if Jayson Tatum will continue his remarkable comeback or if he’ll join Proctor in the off-season.
