Darius Garland is the primary playmaker for the Cleveland Cavaliers, and that’s abundantly clear. Garland, aside from when he was out in Friday’s blowout loss at the New Orleans Pelicans due to a left groin strain, has seemingly taken another forward in Cleveland’s recent stretch, too. Cleveland’s Tuesday loss at the Miami Heat wasn’t necessarily showing that, as he shot only four-of-11, and had three assists to five turnovers, but the proof has been in the putting with Garland this season.
