Jeff Green ended his pregame shooting with a slam on an alley oop off the backboard. LeBron James, who had just got on the court, loved it and made sure Green knew. pic.twitter.com/aByY8SGcqq – 9:20 PM

Darvin Ham says Jarred Vanderbilt is available tonight. Rui Hachimura is available but “it’s more of a touch-and-feel thing with Rui.” Sounds like Hachimura’s minutes tonight will be determined before the game, if not during it. – 8:50 PM
