#Cavs lead the Hornets 29-23 after the first quarter. Darius Garland leads the Cavs with seven points, Jarrett Allen has six. They’ve generated some good shots but made just three of the 13 3s they took. – 6:38 PM

The #Cavs got 103 points from guys not named Donovan Mitchell and Darius Garland tonight. This team just has so many ways to attack offensively. – 11:17 PM

That Mitchell to Garland to Mobley passing was ridiculous. #Cavs ball movement has been really good tonight. – 9:36 PM

#Cavs Darius Garland appeared to get hit in the, um, bad area and is out of the game. Getting looked at on the bench. – 8:51 PM

More on this storyline
Danny Cunningham: Darius Garland was asked about the lack of national recognition the #Cavs get despite being 31-4: “Especially with the group that we have, the brand of basketball that we play. I think it’s really exciting. I think it’s fun. I think it’s actual great basketball and it should be shown a lot more.” -via Twitter @RealDCunningham / January 5, 2025
“All-Star. Unicorn. All-Star. All-Star. All-Star,” Darius Garland added. “He’s taking us over the top right now. He deserves to be in San Francisco. Hopefully he will be. I saw him when he first came in and he was just, like, here sometimes. Now, he has a plan, and you can see what’s going through his mind and how aggressive he is. Seeing it all unfold in front of us is really cool. I don’t even think he knows how good he is and how important he is to this team. But we all do. He’s the one who is going to take us over the top for sure.” -via Cleveland Plain Dealer / January 4, 2025
Atkinson admitted that sometimes Allen doesn’t get enough praise, even from the coaching staff. That shine often goes to Mitchell, Evan Mobley and Darius Garland — the higher-profile members of Cleveland’s celebrated Core 4. Allen isn’t bothered by it. A quirky plant dad, avid reader, pant tailor and cat lover, Allen prefers to be out of the spotlight. “I don’t feel like I really need people to pump me up,” Allen told cleveland.com. “I used to feel underappreciated. But the appreciation comes from the people who matter the most — everyone in this locker room.” -via Cleveland Plain Dealer / December 30, 2024
