Cleveland Cavaliers head coach JB Bickerstaff was proud of the way that Darius Garland stepped up during Tuesday’s 122-119 In-Season Tournament overtime road win vs. the Philadelphia 76ers (32 points/5 rebounds/8 assists/3 steals/10-25 FG/2-6 3-PT/10-11 FT/+4 +/-).

Reporter: “Can you just speak to Darius’ impact tonight?”
Bickerstaff: “It was, ‘Put the ball in my hands, and take the game over.’ Down the stretch he fought through a lot of minutes and fatigue, and a lot of pressure; but he just continued to make play after play and had nerves of steel stepping up making big free throws. I heard him call glass on the three that he banked in. So, he was great all around.”
