Met with their season's first true test of “adversity,” the Cleveland Cavaliers — down two starters, and just one night removed from seeing their historic 16-game winning streak end — could’ve been forgiven had they been slightly off-rhythm. With other plans in mind, Jaylon Tyson ensured that during November 20, 2024’s tango against the New Orleans Pelicans, the NBA’s No. 1 team wouldn’t be missing a single beat. Unquestionably ready for his long-awaited moment in the spotlight, Tyson, already remarkable throughout, keeps the pressure on, invading his way into an inbounds passing lane to set up a potential coast-to-coast finish. Anything but cavalier in his transition approach, Tyson helps Cleveland win this night’s Boston-based battle, outspeeding Brandon Boston Jr. for a highlight-worthy fastbreak finish. The 28-point victory quickly became one to remember for the gifted two-guard as Tyson, in his first-ever NBA start, flirted with a triple-double in collecting 16 points (on 7-of-12 shooting), 11 rebounds, seven assists, two steals, and one 3-pointer. · Nov 21, 2024
