MIAMI (AP) — Brooklyn’s
Jeremy Lin was horrified
to see what happened to
Gordon Hayward, whose
season almost certainly
ended in a most disturbing
fashion five minutes into
the Celtics’ season-open-
er.
A night later, Lin met a
similar fate. Here’s some Dodgers rout Cubs,
of what should be cele-
brated from the opening win NLCS, make World Series
nights of the NBA season:
Milwaukee’s Giannis Ante-
tokounmpo had a 37-point
game, Cleveland’s LeBron
James was one assist away
from a triple-double, Hous-
ton beat Golden State on Los Angeles Dodgers’ Charlie Culberson (37) reacts
the Warriors’ ring night and after hitting a triple off Chicago Cubs relief pitcher
Miami’s Hassan Whiteside Mike Montgomery during the eighth inning of Game
went for 26 points and 22 5 of baseball’s National League Championship
rebounds. Series, Thursday, Oct. 19, 2017, in Chicago.
