James’ buzzer-beater gives Cavs 3-0 lead

LeBron James banked in a running one-hander at the buzzer, giving host Cleveland a 105-103 win over Toronto on Saturday night in Game 3 and shoving the Raptors to the edge of their most devastating playoff exit.

After the Raptors tied it on rookie OG Anunoby’s three-pointer with 8 seconds left, James took the inbounds pass, dribbled the length of the floor and in one motion dropped his 10-footer in front of Toronto’s stunned bench.

The Cavs ran and mobbed James and moments later he was back up on the scorer’s table – just like after a gamewinner against Indiana last round – to celebrate a win that was up for grabs.

James finished with 38 points, Kevin Love added 21 and 16 rebounds and Kyle Korver 18 for the Cavs, who can sweep the Raptors for the second straight year.

Celtics 101, 76ers 98 (overtime): Al Horford scored the go-ahead basket for Boston late in overtime in a wild Game 3 where host Philadelphia gave away the basketball and the confetti to the Celtics.

Boston goes for the sweep Monday. The ending to regulation was about as wild as it gets for both teams. JJ Redick threw away the basketball on an errant pass to no one that was scooped by Terry Rozier, who threw to Jaylen Brown for the basket and an 89-87 lead.

Seconds later, Marco Belinelli stunned everyone with a falling 22-footer in front of the 76ers bench as time expired that sent the game into overtime — and confetti mistakenly blasted from the cannon.

Belinelli opened OT with a 23-footer and Redick followed with a three-pointer.

But the Celtics wouldn’t let the 76ers pull away, and Horford escaped for a layup with 5.5 seconds left that gave Boston a 99-98 lead. Ben Simmons then threw the ball away after a timeout and Horford sealed the win with two free throws.
