I<\/a>n Friday\u2019s Brotherhood Playoff Action, Toronto shocked Cleveland in overtime, 112-110, Detroit<\/a> roared back to pop Orlando<\/a>, 93-79, and Los Angeles<\/a> eliminated Houston<\/a>, 98-78.<\/p>\n

The big story of the night was RJ Barrett\u2019s magnificent game-winner against the Cavaliers. Barrett didn\u2019t shoot well overall, just 8-21\/4-12, but he hit the only shot that people will be talking about. He also pulled down 9 rebounds, and passed out 3 assists.<\/p>\n

Orlando led 62-38, and somehow let the Pistons come back to win by 14. The Magic missed 23 straight shots in the second half. That\u2019s atrocious.<\/p>\n

Detroit ripped off a 35-5 run during that stretch of futility. Paolo Banchero<\/a> finished 4-20 from the field. He did grab 10 rebounds, but Orlando missed 51 shots, so there were plenty to go around.<\/p>\n

Not for Wendell Carter<\/a>, though: while he shot better (3-5), he only scored 9 points and had 0 rebounds.<\/p>\n

After a great start to the series against the Rockets, Luke Kennard<\/a> moved back to the bench once Austin Reaves<\/a> was available. He got 29 minutes, but shot just 1-6 for three points.<\/p>\n

With Cleveland\u2019s loss, Tyrese Proctor<\/a> is nearly out of the championship hunt. On Saturday, Boston<\/a> hosts Philadelphia<\/a> at home in Game 7, and we\u2019ll find out if Jayson Tatum<\/a> will continue his remarkable comeback or if he\u2019ll start the off-season.<\/p>\n
