The Cleveland Cavaliers defeated the Toronto Raptors 125–120 on April 29 at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse in a closely contested playoff matchup. E. Mobley and J. Harden each scored 23 points to lead Cleveland, while R. Barrett paced Toronto with 25 points and J. Walter added 20. The Cavaliers shot 53.1 percent from the field and made 18 three-pointers, establishing offensive efficiency with a 121.0 rating despite 14 turnovers. Toronto's defense held firm with a 121.0 defensive rating, but the Raptors struggled in the fourth quarter, scoring just 17 points after a strong 40-point second quarter. The Raptors' 48 rebounds and 32 assists reflected their ball movement, yet their 46.3 field-goal percentage and 15 made threes fell short. Cleveland's second-half adjustments—particularly a dominant third quarter with 33 points—proved decisive in a game that finished below the Vegas total of 219.5. The narrow margin underscores Toronto's offensive decline late, positioning Cleveland with momentum as the series continues.
