Among them, in the last quarter, he shot 3 shots and shots without false hair, not only led by example, led the Cavaliers to withstand the pressure, but also sent assists in succession, revitalizing the team's attack!

Just in the face of the multi-point blossoming Cavaliers, as well as the huge gap in the strength and depth of the lineup, Grant, who worked hard for a whole game, but was difficult to support, seemed to be only fruitless!
