UPDATE: Mitchell will play Sunday vs. the Magic, while Mobley has been ruled out. With Mobley sidelined, De’Andre Hunter could enter the Cavaliers’ starting lineup.
Donovan Mitchell could miss his third straight game on Sunday as he’s still dealing with a groin injury. The Cavaliers listed him as questionable for March 16’s game against the Magic.
In addition to Mitchell, Evan Mobley is questionable with a right foot contusion. He, however, played last game against the Grizzlies.
The Cavaliers have won 16 games straight, even with Mitchell and Mobley missing some games during this stretch. The team is well-equipped to play without either of their stars for a night or two.
If Mitchell remains out, Isaac Okoro will likely start in his spot. Okoro started in the two games that Mitchell missed. If Mobley is out, De’Andre Hunter will likely start.
Cleveland has great backup options with Hunter, Okoro, Dean Wade and Ty Jerome, so they can still be a threat to the Magic even if both Mitchell and Mobley are out.
