Julius Randle was all Nets fans could have asked for in his Brooklyn debut, but the team still has some kinks to work out as it heads out on the road.
The Nets visit Cleveland on Saturday on the heels of a season-opening home defeat against the Hornets. Randle had 33 points, eight rebounds and seven assists in that one, with Michael Porter Jr. adding 26 points and seven rebounds. Those two were 21 of 39 (53.8%) from the field, but the rest of the team made just 15 of 41 (36.6%) and no one else had more than nine points.
Brooklyn will keep working on those complementary aspects against the Cavs, who are doing some early soul-searching of their own. Cleveland blew a 29-point lead in its opener against LeBron James and the 76ers on Thursday and ended up falling 114-106.
Who will come away with a win Saturday? Here's when and where to tune in.
