Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (groin) is not listed on the injury report, indicating that he is ready to return to action on Thursday against the San Antonio Spurs. Mitchell is managing a groin injury and sat out Tuesday's victory over the Portland Trail Blazers. He was replaced in the starting lineup by Sam Merrill, who had a decent showing with 14 points, two rebounds, and three assists. Recently, Mitchell has performed poorly, shooting only 33.3 percent from the field to average 20.3 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 4.9 assists this month.
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (groin) will not suit up for Tuesday's clash against the Portland Trail Blazers. He has been ruled out for groin injury management purposes. Ty Jerome, De'Andre Hunter, and Isaac Okoro are expected to fill larger roles with Mitchell unavailable. The latter started in Mitchell's place in back-to-back games when he was out earlier this month with a groin injury. However, Jerome and Hunter are definitely the better fantasy options, as Okoro struggles to fill the stat sheet even if he logs 30-plus minutes.
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (groin) will return from a two-game absence for Sunday's matchup with the Orlando Magic. The 28-year-old has battled a sore groin. However, it didn't stop the Cavaliers from extending their win streak to 16 games. De'Andre Hunter and Ty Jerome got some extra work while Mitchell was out, with Darius Garland and Evan Mobley (foot) carrying most of the load offensively. But with Mobley ruled out, there's still room for at least Hunter to remain involved from off the bench.
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (groin) is questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Orlando Magic. The 28-year-old has missed the last two games because of groin soreness. Yet, the Cavaliers have been just fine without him, with the team winning the last 16 games. If Mitchell doesn't make it back on Sunday, Evan Mobley (foot), who is questionable, and Darius Garland, combining for 42 points in Friday's win over the Grizzlies, will likely remain the Cavs' top offensive producers. De'Andre Hunter and Ty Jerome should also be more involved on the scoring end from off the bench.
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (groin) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Mitchell will miss his second game in a row due to left groin soreness. The Cavs are in good enough position playoff-wise that they don't need to push Mitchell out there if he isn't 100 percent healthy. Isaac Okoro figures to remain in the starting five for at least one more game. He finished with six points and five rebounds across 32 minutes on Tuesday. It doesn't appear that the extended playing time is going to make Okoro a viable fantasy option.
Sam Amico of HoopsWire.com reports that Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (groin) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest against the Brooklyn Nets. Although his left groin injury is not considered serious, the Cavs are being cautious with their 28-year-old star guard. While Mitchell is out of action against Brooklyn, plenty of scoring opportunities and extra minutes should be available for Isaac Okoro and Sam Merrill. On Friday, Mitchell will likely return to Cleveland's rotation against the Grizzlies.
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (rest) will return to the lineup on Tuesday against the Chicago Bulls. The team has not listed him on the injury report. Mitchell skipped Sunday's action against the Portland Trail Blazers for rest purposes. De'Andre Hunter received an opportunity to start and led all scorers with 32 points in a 133-129 win. He might remain part of the first unit on Tuesday, as Cleveland will rest Evan Mobley against the Bulls.
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell and center Evan Mobley won Saturday's Skills Challenge during All-Star weekend. There was some controversy when San Antonio Spurs players Chris Paul and Victor Wembanyama were disqualified from the contest. Regardless, Mitchell and Mobley dominated, so they didn't need much help. Both players have been a key reason why the Cavs had so much success in the first half of the season. They both should remain top tier fantasy options for the rest of the season as long as the Cavs don't start resting players down the stretch.
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (shoulder) will return to the lineup on Friday against the Washington Wizards. After sitting out the second game of a back-to-back against the Detroit Pistons on Wednesday, Mitchell was initially considered probable for Friday's game. The team has now upgraded the six-time All-Star to available, and Mitchell is making his return in a juicy matchup. Washington allows the most points per game this season in the NBA. Mitchell has averaged 23.0 points with 46.7 percent three-point shooting against the Wizards in 2024-25.
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (shoulder) has been listed as probable for Friday's matchup with the Washington Wizards. He received a night off to deal with a shoulder contusion on Wednesday and seems ready to go against a lowly Wizards team that will roll out a decimated crew until all of their trades go through. This season, Mitchell averages 23.8 points, 4.7 assists, 4.4 rebounds, and 1.4 steals per game while the Cavs sit atop the Eastern Conference.
