Injury status of Donovan Mitchell, Evan Mobley for Cavs vs. 76ers
When it comes to the question of whether Donovan Mitchell and Evan Mobley are playing in tonight's Cavs vs. 76ers matchup, the answer is yes.
After missing two weeks of action, Mitchell returned from a groin strain on Sunday to turn in a commendable effort against the Boston Celtics in a 109-98 loss. The Cavs' star guard finished with 30 points, seven rebounds, five assists and two blocks in 34 minutes. Mobley is set to go into Monday's meet, marking the first time he has played in two consecutive games since returning from a left calf strain following the All-Star break.
James Harden is available for Cleveland to continue playing despite a fractured right thumb. The same goes for Keon Ellis, who is dealing with a broken left finger. Dean Wade is likely with a sprained right ankle, and, as close as the start of the season seems to be for Max Strus, he has not yet returned for the Cavs.
The Sixers will be without three of their key players in Tyrese Maxey, Joel Embiid and Paul George. Philadelphia is also going to be without standout rookie VJ Edgecombe due to a back injury. Kelly Oubre Jr. will be able to play in Cleveland.
