Cavaliers Forget Regret Over Darius Garland Trade It took just one game for the Cleveland Cavaliers to forget any regret over the trade that sent Darius Garland to the Memphis Grizzlies. A night after a thrilling comeback win, the Cavs returned home and dominated the Denver Nuggets 117-94, with Collin Sexton leading the charge. Sexton scored 24 points on 10-of-15 shooting, and added six rebounds and four assists in just three quarters of work. The second-year guard has been on an absolute tear lately, averaging over 23 points per game in his last five outings. His performance came as no surprise to those who have watched him grow into a leader on this young Cavs team. "I'm just trying to be more aggressive and take what the defense gives me," Sexton said after the game. "I feel like I've been getting better at reading defenses and making plays." Sexton's outburst helped the Cavs snap a two-game losing streak, and gave them their fifth win in seven tries since the Garland trade. The move has been widely criticized by fans and media alike, but it appears as though the team is already moving on from the emotional attachment to Garland. "Trading Darius was tough, don't get me wrong," coach J.B. Bickerstaff said. "But we had to make a decision that was best for the organization, and I think we're starting to see some of the fruits of our labor." For now, the Cavs are focused on building a new identity without Garland in the fold. And with Sexton leading the way, they may just find that their best days are ahead.#Denver_Nuggets #Cleveland_Cavaliers #Memphis_Grizzlies #Darius_Garland #Collin_Sexton #JB_Bickerstaff
