As the world tunes in for every Bangladesh Cricket Match, NBA fans witnessed a classic comeback in Cleveland, where the Cavaliers rallied to defeat the Los Angeles Clippers 118–113 in overtime. The victory marked Cleveland’s fourth straight win and handed the Clippers their seventh consecutive loss.
LeBron James once again carried the Cavaliers on his shoulders, logging a grueling 46 minutes and finishing with 39 points, 14 rebounds, and 6 assists. With injuries to Derrick Rose and Isaiah Thomas, Cleveland had no natural point guard available, forcing James to run the offense while still serving as the team’s primary scoring option. Exhausted but relentless, he refused to let the game slip away.
Fortunately, his longtime teammate and friend Dwyane Wade stepped up in a big way. Wade delivered 23 points, 11 rebounds, and 5 assists off the bench, bringing his veteran presence and spark when it was needed most. In the first half alone, he poured in 19 points in just 15 minutes, helping the Cavaliers stay within reach.
The Clippers held a 10-point lead in the fourth quarter, but James turned the tide. He bulldozed through the paint for tough finishes and sank two critical three-pointers, including the game-tying shot that leveled the score at 105 and forced overtime. From there, Cleveland took control and closed out the game.
James’ consistency this season, particularly in mid-range and three-point shooting, has been a major weapon for the Cavaliers. With Rose sidelined due to an ankle injury suffered back on October 20 against the Bucks, ESPN reports he’ll be out for at least two more weeks. Rose has averaged 14.3 points over seven games this season and was expected to be a key piece in Cleveland’s backcourt rotation.
In other NBA action, the San Antonio Spurs pulled off a dramatic 23-point comeback to defeat the Oklahoma City Thunder 104–101. LaMarcus Aldridge led the charge, scoring 26 points and grabbing 9 rebounds. His game-sealing putback in the final 24 seconds helped end the Thunder’s three-game winning streak. Russell Westbrook struggled, going just 5-of-22 from the field and finishing with 15 points, 9 rebounds, and 9 assists.
As basketball delivers its share of nail-biters, fans also continue to track the intensity and unpredictability of every Bangladesh Cricket Match. Whether it’s a court comeback or a thrilling final over, the highs and lows of sports never fail to captivate. And for Cavaliers fans, this game was proof that with heart and hustle, no deficit is too deep.
