Cavs blow 22-point lead vs. Pacers, lose third straight
A Steph Curry-less Golden State Warriors put their loss to the LA Clippers behind them as Kevin Durant hit 26 and Draymond Green got 21 in a 108-94 win over the Milwaukee Bucks. Stephenson had one of his best games of the year and finished with 16 points, 11 rebounds and four assists.
The Suns have received solid recent contributions from second-year forward Dragan Bender, who has received more than 30 minutes in each of the last two games because of a hip injury to starter Marquese Chriss. To that end, Shams Charania of The Vertical brought word on Friday that the Cavs could move Thompson, though only in "the right deal". We know that they want to rid Asik's contract, and Boogie might leave anyway, so pairing Thompson with Davis could give a limited version of what Cousins and Davis offer, or Thompson could back up Davis with energy off the bench.
IN began to slowly chip away at the lead.
"Players are grumbling about Lue's lineups, wondering if Thompson should start and if Channing Frye should play more". But then a 16-2 run by the Pacers gave IN the lead heading into the final period. The Pacers were +14 when Stephenson was on the court, the best plus-minus number for any player on either team.

Social media users reacted to the footage of the crash, with some saying it was "incredible it stopped where it did". Flights were suspended at Trabzon Airport for several hours after the incident before resuming again Sunday.
According to Joe Vardon of Cleveland.com: "Players have grumbled that James has slowed the ball movement, holding onto the ball until he sees an "assist" pass, rather than moving it quickly". He got another chance with a desperation three-pointer as time expired, but missed.
Following the game, James was predictably less than thrilled and Dave McMenamin of ESPN passed along his thoughts, including that the Cavs are "in a funk" at the moment.
Darren Collison led the way for the Pacers with 22 points, and Oladipo wasn't far behind with 19 despite a less-than-desirable 8-of-21 shooting clip.

Authorities have asked that anyone with information to call the Gwinnett Police Department or Crime Stoppers Atlanta. The Gwinnett County Medical Examiner's Office said she was dead for almost two weeks before authorities found her.
LeBron refused to elaborate on what he said to Handy during the timeout after the game. "He's a little dirty", said James. Did I know I was ready for marriage? No. "I should have known, I've known since school, it's not the guy who tells the joke that gets caught it's the guy who laughs. He played well, though".
Although the win helped Toronto stay ahead of Cleveland in the standings, both Casey and all-star guard DeMar DeRozan said they didn't think the game was make-or-break for the Raptors' season.
What's Next: The Pacers (22-20) are now going on their longest road trip of the season out west.
James also was baited into a technical foul by Stephenson with 7:53 left in the game. Pascal Siakam, Jakob Poeltl, Norm Powell, Fred VanVleet and Lorenzo Brown (who played 35 minutes in the G League Showcase earlier in the day) were the engineers of a game-turning 18-2 run in the second quarter.
