All grades are based on our usual expectations for each player. NOTE : I retroactively took half a grade away from everyone tonight for the three-point defense. That’s what happens when your opponent matches the NBA record for threes made.

Jarrett Allen 13 points, 9 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, 2 blocks Allen was in his bag tonight. His behind-the-back dribble into a monster dunk was my favorite moment of the game. But he also rejected the Grizzlies at the rim and showed his usual two-way impact throughout the night.

The Cavs are getting the most out of Allen, who is visibly still working through some discomfort in his knee. Grade: B+ Evan Mobley 24 points, 4 assists, 6 rebounds Mobley had a favorable matchup all night. The Cavs did a fine job of taking advantage of that, repeatedly dumping the ball to Mobley and playing off his gravity.
