Kevin Pritchard: “I would say Victor and Domantas (Sabonis) had more of an impact on what we do than, maybe even Chris (Paul). … I can’t think of any human being that could change an organization, not only from his playing, but from what he’s about, than Victor. We feel like we hit the jackpot. No offense to Paul George, he’s having success and he’s going to go wherever he wants this offseason … We were in the room and were looking around and Oklahoma City said, ‘OK, we’ll do this. We’ll do Victor and Domantas.’ … I thought, ‘How can we turn this down?'”
Jason Lloyd: Final: Cavs 98, Pacers 95. (Cavs lead series 3-2.) LeBron James 44p,10r,8a; Kyle Korver 19p,6r; Kevin Love 11p,10r,2/11fgs; JR Smith 0p,0/8fg. IND Domantas Sabonis 22p; Victor Oladipo 12p,12r,4a; Thaddeus Young 16p.
J. Michael Falgoust: Their reviewing Sabonis’ foul on LBJ but he got the ball first and tried to hold him up. Its a foul. No doubt. The selling is unnecessary #PacersCavs
Tim Bontemps: Flagrant one for Sabonis – two shots and the ball for the Cavaliers in a seven-point game. Could be a massive swing.
Scott Agness: 30-point game for Domantas Sabonis, the best offensive game of his career. New career high. And he’s done it on 13/20 shooting.
