JB Bickerstaff says he’s not sure yet if Darius Garland and Donovan Mitchell will play today. Said in an earlier question that he thought Garland’s energy was good. Cavs still beat Detroit on Friday without both All-Stars. – 2:05 PM

No Darius Garland. No Donovan Mitchell. No worries. #Cavs still have a third All-Star, future Hall of Famer and one of the East’s deepest rosters

#Cavs Donovan Mitchell just hopped off the bench and did the Jordan shrug after Cedi Osman made his 4th 3-pointer of the game. – 8:38 PM

With Darius Garland and Donovan Mitchell both out tonight, Caris LeVert’s role changes yet again. He’s stepped up in different ways all year, and will have to tonight. thelandondemand.com/news/2022/nov/…6:00 PM

#Cavs J.B. Bickerstaff on Darius Garland and Donovan Mitchell: “We’ll see” – 5:37 PM
Kristian Winfield @Krisplashed
From Sept. 2: “Donovan Mitchell is the piece that ties it all together, and the Cavaliers were in a unique and picture-perfect position… The Cavaliers opted to win right now. They have almost assured their four-year playoff drought comes to an end.”

I saw #Cavs Donovan Mitchell walking sort of slowly and gingerly in the locker room after the game. Team is calling it a sprained left ankle. It happened late in the first half when he landed awkwardly following a pass. – 5:40 PM

More on this storyline

The Cleveland Cavaliers will be without both starting guards on Friday night against the Detroit Pistons. Sources tell cleveland.com that Darius Garland and Donovan Mitchell, listed as questionable going into the night, won’t play because of injuries suffered in Wednesday’s hard-fought win over the Boston Celtics. Garland has a sprained left knee while Mitchell sprained his left ankle. Neither are believed to be serious injuries. -via Cleveland Plain Dealer / November 4, 2022
