LeBron James posts a dud as Cleveland suffers their first loss of the postseason
Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James was held to only 11 points on 4-of-13 shooting, adding 6 rebounds, 6 assists and 6 turnovers as the Cavs fell 111-108 to the Boston Celtics on Sunday.
What It Means:
LeBron has been phenomenal in the postseason, and even with the poor showing in Game 3, he's averaging 32.2 points, 8.3 rebounds, 7.0 assists, 2.2 steals and 1.5 blocks per game in the 2017 playoffs. His eight consecutive games with 30-plus points before this one tied Michael Jordan for the longest such streak since 1971. Cleveland still holds a 2-1 series lead over Boston, and Game 4 will be in Cleveland on Tuesday.
James finished Sunday's loss with a -50.3 nERD, the lowest mark in the game, per numberFire Live.
