After the loss against New York, LeBron James himself pointed to Austin Reaves’ absence as a major factor behind the team’s inconsistency

The New York Knicks extended their win streak to six with an impressive showing in the second half against the Los Angeles Lakers on the debut of Sunday Night Basketball.

But this night was about the Cleveland Cavaliers, until Bronny James came into the game late to put on a little show in his dad LeBron's return to Cleveland. Bronny checked in with more than seven minutes to play and the game well in hand for the Cavs, and he cruise-controlled through his first few minutes.

LeBron James got emotional during his trip back to Cleveland on Wednesday night as he watched highlights from his 25-point Eastern Conference Finals Game 5 performance from 2007. The heartfelt moment occurred during a stoppage in play during the first quarter of the Lakers’ 129-99 loss to the Cavaliers at Rocket Arena.

Luka Doncic notched a 38-point triple-double, and the Los Angeles Lakers defense held Jamal Murray to just two second-half points in a tough win against the Denver Nuggets.
