Evan Mobley-powered Cavs have looked like best team in NBA East
The Cavs are building momentum in their bid to take full control of the NBA Eastern Conference. Evan Mobley is leading the charge
The Cleveland Cavaliers have yet to have all their guys fully healthy since the acquisition of James Harden. Jarrett Allen is still out with an injury. Still, the Cavs have been 14-4 with Harden on the court.
Each of the Cavs' most important guys has looked great next to Harden, especially Evan Mobley . In the Cavs' most recent game, their Big 3 looked very impressive. In the win over a hot Orlando Magic team, the Cavs had four players score at least 19 points.
Donovan Mitchell had 42 points and was lights out as he seemingly couldn't miss. James Harden was a perfect complement to Mitchell with his 26 points and 7 assists. Evan Mobley was right behind the two with 19 points, 9 rebounds, 6 assists, and he did not miss a single shot.
The Big 3 looked great, and they all fed off of each other. The Cavs have now won four straight games and are ending the season with a special kind of momentum. Last season, the Cavs had the best record in the Eastern Conference, but it still did not feel like this.
