Fans were shocked by Darius Garland’s mistake in Game 6 defeat

In a heart-stopping Game 6 showdown between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Orlando Magic, the Cavaliers found themselves on the brink of victory before a late-game blunder by Darius Garland turned the tide in favor of the Magic.

After a back-and-forth battle, the Cavaliers had clawed their way back from a halftime deficit to take the lead in the second half. Donovan Mitchell put on a stellar performance, scoring 18 points in the fourth quarter and totaling 50 points for the game. However, Garland’s late-game turnover proved costly for the Cavaliers.

In a clip circulating on Twitter, Garland can be seen dribbling up the court with the shot clock winding down. However, he fails to cross the half-court line in time, resulting in an 8-second violation. The turnover gave the Magic the momentum they needed to make a comeback and force a Game 7.

While some fans criticized Garland for the blunder, others pointed out that the clock may have started early, leaving Garland with less time than he thought. Despite the controversy, Garland will need to regroup and focus on taking better care of the ball in Game 7 if the Cavaliers hope to advance in the playoffs.

As the tension mounts for the decisive Game 7, all eyes will be on Garland to see if he can bounce back from his mistake and help lead the Cavaliers to victory. Stay tuned for more updates on this thrilling playoff series.
