Here’s what happened. Jayson Tatum was dribbling toward the hoop when he lost the ball out of bounds. The refs initially called it a jump ball. After conversing with his staff (and seemingly with input from Boston), Atkinson challenged the call. It was successful, and somebody owes Aliyah Boston a consultant’s fee because SHE WAS RIGHT.

Atkinson's journey to the Cavs has been unique, while Tatum has been amazing for the Celtics. Plus, the Nets appear open to trades.

Cleveland played the New York Knicks in their third game of the season. The Cavaliers have struggled to grab rebounds against New York for the past few seasons, and that trend continued in the first half of that matchup, with New York outrebounding Cleveland by eight in the first half.
