This is Christian Wood’s first game with multiple three-pointers since November 6 vs. Miami. And save one triple against Utah earlier this week, it’s his first make from distance since November 10. To put it mildly, he and the Lakers both needed this badly. AK – 8:25 PM

Lakers join Heat in calling Cavaliers’ raised court into question as safety hazard following Dru Smith injury. But the court has been about 10 inches higher than the floor underneath for 30 years, @TheAthleticNBA theathletic.com/5089120/2023/1… – 8:01 PM

The Raptors have quietly turned themselves into a pretty good offensive team. How real is it? We’ll get an idea in Cleveland: sportsnet.ca/nba/article/ra… – 7:57 PM

#Cavs tribute video for LeBron was mostly focused on him becoming the NBA’s all-time leading scorer last season. This is his first game in Cleveland since. – 7:57 PM

Three straight Lakers turnovers out of the time out. Cleveland capitalized on one of the first two, and has the ball out of the next time out, with LAL up 16-10, thanks to their 7 for 10 shooting. – 7:53 PM

LeBron James is back on the floor and staying in the game after the Lakers needed to call a timeout after LeBron was down on one knee at midcourt while holding his face. Looked like Evan Mobley accidentally hit him while LeBron was defending Evan. – 7:52 PM

Nice start for the Lakers, who got an and-1 finish from LeBron off AD’s deflection, then a Christie dunk from Russell, and Prince layup from LeBron to go up 7-0 at Cleveland. – 7:44 PM

#Cavs J.B. Bickerstaff on Cleveland’s elevated court:
“Our guys are comfortable playing here. We haven’t had any incidents because of how our floor is built. I could see how opponents who aren’t used to it could see it as a distraction, but we haven’t had any problems with it” – 7:05 PM

For the Lakers, Rui Hachimura (nasal fracture), Jarred Vanderbilt (left heel) and Gabe Vincent (left knee) are out. LeBron James (left calf) and Cam Reddish (left adductor) are questionable and Anthony Davis (hip) is probable. – 5:36 PM
