Evan Mobley scored 11 points with 16 rebounds and five blocked shots and Darius Garland chipped in 12 points to help Cleveland withstand a 38-point performance from Paolo Banchero. In the face of Orlando's suffocating defense the Cavs connected on just six of 22 shots in the first quarter and didn't make a 3-pointer until Sam Merrill drilled one midway through the second quarter.
"They came out and jumped on us," he added, saying the key was for the Cavs "to respond the way we did, keep plugging, just keep chipping away." Wendell Carter Jr. scored 13 points and Jalen Suggs added 10 for the Magic, but Franz Wagner was held to just six as Orlando remained in search of a first playoff series victory since 2010.Banchero himself said the Magic's fight back from 0-2 down in the series to force Game 7 "just shows where we're headed."Moms Solenn, Kryz and Georgina are bringing their kids to this Gifted Brain Room.
