Donovan Mitchell News, Rumors, Updates - Cleveland Cavaliers

Game-time call for Game 5 Mitchell (ankle) will be a game-time decision for Tuesday's game against the Pacers, Charania reports.

Impact After undergoing an MRI Monday, Mitchell has reaggravated a left ankle injury. The superstar guard didn't play in the second half of Game 4, and it is uncertain whether he'll be able to suit up for Game 5. If Mitchell cannot play Tuesday, the Cavaliers will likely turn to Ty Jerome to help shoulder the load in the backcourt alongside Darius Garland. Cleveland faces elimination for the first time in these playoffs, with the Pacers holding a commanding 3-1 series lead.

Impact Mitchell played only 20 minutes during Sunday's game due to an ankle injury. However, the superstar guard didn't make much of an impact in the short time he was on the floor, as he hit only three of his 15 shot attempts. The Cavaliers now face an uphill battle to get back into this second-round series, with the Pacers taking a commanding 3-1 lead.

The superstar guard logged 20 minutes Sunday, finishing with 12 points, one rebound, one steal and one block. Injuries continue to take a toll on the top-seeded Cavaliers, as several of the team's best players have missed time during this series, including Evan Mobley, Darius Garland and De'Andre Hunter.

Impact Mitchell is trending toward not being able to return to the floor in the second half of Game 4, with the superstar guard dealing with an ankle injury. Ty Jerome will likely see increased minutes in the second half, with Mitchell unlikely to play in the final two quarters.

Remains in locker room Mitchell did not start the second half Sunday and remained in the locker room for an undisclosed reason, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.

Impact It is uncertain whether Mitchell is dealing with an injury or if something else is going on with him, as Ty Jerome starts in his place to begin the second half against the Pacers in Game 4. The Cavaliers faced a 41-point deficit to start the third quarter, as the top-seeded team could not keep up with Tyrese Haliburton's squad in the first half.

Impact Mitchell surpassed the 40-point mark for the second game in a row, but unlike Tuesday, this time the Cavaliers pulled out the win thanks to a dominant effort on both ends of the court. Mitchell turned it up late in the game and made a couple of key shots down the stretch when the Pacers were threatening with a comeback. Scoring at this pace is unsustainable on a long-term basis, but Mitchell is averaging 41.3 points per game in the Eastern Conference Semifinals. He should have a key role for the Cavaliers as they attempt to even the series Sunday on the road.
