  • Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Good to go Sunday

    Mitchell (ankle) is not on the injury report ahead of Game 1 against the Heat on Sunday.

    Mitchell was held out of the Cavaliers' last four games of the regular season due to a left ankle sprain, but he has been cleared to play in Sunday's postseason opener. Mitchell finished the 2024-25 regular season averaging 24.0 points, 5.0 assists, 4.5 rebounds and 1.3 steals over 31.4 minutes per game while shooting 36.8 percent from three-point range.

  • Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Full-go in practice

    Coach Kenny Atkinson said Thursday that Mitchell (ankle) practiced without any restrictions, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Mitchell missed the Cavaliers' final four regular-season games due to a left ankle sprain. However, the star guard's full participation in practice is a good sign that he will be able to suit up for Game 1 of the playoffs Sunday.

  • Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Expected to be ready for postseason

    The Cavaliers anticipate Mitchell (ankle) will be ready for the first-round playoff series against their opponent Sunday, which is yet to be determined, Joe Reedy of the Associated Press reports.

    Mitchell missed the last four games of the Cavaliers' regular season to nurse a sprained left ankle. The superstar guard's numbers dipped across the board during the 2024-25 campaign, but it resulted in a better all-around performance from the squad, resulting in a 64-win finish and the top seed in the Eastern Conference.

  • Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Sitting out regular-season finale

    Mitchell (ankle) is out for Sunday's game against the Pacers.

    Mitchell will miss a fourth straight game due to an ankle sprain he sustained in the 120-113 win over the Kings on Sunday, April 6. The Cavaliers are being extremely cautious with the health of their star guard, so Mitchell will have extra days to recover. The goal is to have the superstar guard ready for the start of the playoffs April 19. Mitchell ends the 2024-25 campaign with averages of 24.0 points, 4.5 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 1.3 steals per game across 71 starts.

  • Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Won't play Friday

    Mitchell (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Knicks.

    Mitchell will miss a third straight game due to an ankle sprain he sustained during Sunday's 120-113 win over the Kings. He was able to return to that game following a brief exit, but the severity remains unclear. With the Cavaliers locked into the top seed in the Eastern Conference, they can afford to be cautious with their superstar guard.

  • Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Still sidelined by ankle injury

    Mitchell (ankle) is out for Thursday's game against the Pacers, Evan Dammarell of DownEuclid.com reports.

    Mitchell is nursing a left ankle sprain, and given that the Cavaliers need him at his best for the playoffs, there's no point in the team risking him in the final days of the regular season. His next chance to play will come Friday against the Knicks, but it wouldn't be surprising if the star guard doesn't play until the start of the postseason.

  • Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Out Tuesday with ankle sprain

    Mitchell won't play Tuesday against the Bulls due to a left ankle sprain.

    Mitchell sustained the injury during Sunday's 120-113 win over the Kings, though he was able to check back into the game following a brief exit. The severity of the sprain isn't known, but even if it's just a minor concern, the Cavaliers won't take any chances with the star guard Tuesday while the team needs just one win over its final four games of the regular season to clinch the Eastern Conference's No. 1 seed. His absence Tuesday could lead to elevated usage for Darius Garland, Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen and increased playing time for Ty Jerome, Sam Merrill and Craig Porter.

  • Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Returns Sunday

    Mitchell (ankle) returned to the court with 3:02 remaining during the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Kings, Nate Ulrich of USA Today reports.

    Mitchell limped back to the locker room after stepping on an opposing player's foot and sustaining a left ankle injury. However, the star shooting guard was seen warming up on an exercise bike and later returned to game action. There's no indication Mitchell will be limited the rest of the way.

  • Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Heads to locker room

    Mitchell appeared to have injured his left leg during Sunday's game against the Kings and walked to the locker room on his own power, Ethan Sands of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Mitchell has been the Cavaliers' backbone and undisputed leader this season, but the team may power through without him for the rest of the game Sunday against Sacramento. The superstar guard logged 18 minutes, racking up 14 points, three rebounds, one assist, and one steal before heading to the locker room.

  • Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Leads charge in Friday's win

    Mitchell supplied a game-high 26 points (8-18 FG, 6-11 3Pt, 4-6 FT), three rebounds, seven assists, one block and one steal in 34 minutes during Friday's 114-113 win over the Spurs.

    The 28-year-old guard appears to be back in All-Star form. Mitchell has scored at least 24 points in five straight games, averaging 28.0 points, 7.2 assists, 6.8 boards, 3.6 threes, 1.6 steals and 1.0 blocks over that stretch as the Cavs close in on securing the best record in the Eastern Conference.

  • Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Does it all in balanced performance

    Mitchell posted 27 points (10-18 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, five assists, three blocks and one steal over 30 minutes in Wednesday's 124-105 win over the New York Knicks.

    Mitchell did it all for Cleveland in a winning effort Wednesday, leading all players in scoring, threes made and blocks while concluding second among Cavaliers in rebounds and assists in an all-around performance. Mitchell set a new season high in blocks, surpassing the total of two blocks he has recorded twice. Mitchell has now tallied at least 25 points, five rebounds and five assists in eight appearances this year.

  • Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Well-rounded outing in victory

    Mitchell closed Sunday's 127-122 win over the Clippers with 24 points (9-19 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 12 rebounds, seven assists and four steals over 37 minutes.

    Mitchell did it all in Sunday's victory, leading all Cavaliers in steals while recording team-high-tying rebound and assists totals and finishing as one of three players with 20 or more points. Mitchell tied a season high in steals, a mark he has accomplished on four occasions. He has now recorded a double-double in four contests, his first since Feb. 4.

  • Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Impressive outing not enough

    Mitchell closed with 38 points (12-24 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 11-13 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one steal across 36 minutes during Friday's 133-122 loss to the Pistons.

    Mitchell delivered his best scoring output since Feb. 28, when he delivered 41 points in a win over the Celtics, but this time, his efforts weren't enough to lift the Cavaliers to victory. The star guard has been feeling the effects of a grueling regular season, and while he continues to play at a high level, his numbers have dipped a little of late. He's been averaging 22.4 points per game since the beginning of March, compared to his 24.0 points per contest throughout the entire campaign.

  • Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Dishes out season-high 14 assists

    Mitchell closed with 25 points (8-18 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 5-5 FT), eight rebounds, 14 assists, one block and one steal over 35 minutes during Thursday's 124-116 victory over San Antonio.

    The Cavaliers had to work harder than expected to get past the Spurs in this one, and they probably wouldn't have done it without the contributions of Mitchell -- particularly in the passing column. The 14 assists were a season-high mark for the superstar. He's cleared the 20-point mark in six of his 10 appearances this month, a span in which he's averaging 20.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 1.1 steals per contest.

  • Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Removed from injury report

    Mitchell (groin) has been cleared to play in Thursday's game against the Spurs.

    Mitchell will return to the floor Thursday after missing Tuesday's win against the Trail Blazers. The star guard is averaging 23.7 points, 4.3 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.3 steals per game, shooting 44.0 percent from the floor and 36.7 percent from beyond the arc.

  • Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Unavailable for Tuesday

    Mitchell won't play Tuesday against the Trail Blazers due to left groin injury management.

    This appears to be a precautionary move by Cleveland to ensure Mitchell remains healthy after missing two games earlier in the month with a groin injury. Look for De'Andre Hunter and Sam Merrill to see more playing time in Mitchell's absence.

  • Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Another rough shooting night

    Mitchell chipped in seven points (2-18 FG, 0-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists and two steals across 31 minutes during Friday's 123-112 loss to the Suns.

    The All-Star guard remains mired in a shooting slump. While sheer volume has allowed Mitchell to top 20 points in five of his eight March appearances, he's shooting just 32.9 percent from the floor and a woeful 17.9 percent from beyond the arc on the month, and averages of 20.9 points, 5.1 boards, 5.0 assists, 1.5 threes and 1.0 steals.
