Evan Mobley is in prime position to win an NBA championship
Evan Mobley is playing his best basketball. As a result, the Cavs look ready for a deep playoff run in a wide-open Eastern Conference
The NBA playoffs are just about here, and things are heating up in the Eastern Conference. The East is shaping up to be the most competitive it has been in recent years. Evan Mobley and his Cleveland Cavalilers squad should like their chances, as they are healthy and clicking on all cylinders.
The Cavs are at full strength minus key rotation player Jaylon Tyson, who is averaging 13 points a game this season. As it goes for their big 4, whom the Cavs are expecting a lot from, all 4 had big games Wednesday night. Donovan Mitchell was spectacular as he had 31 points, shot 12-19 from the field, had 7 rebounds, and 4 assists.
James Harden chipped in 21 points, 4 assists, and 2 steals. Jarrett Allen had 16 points, 8 rebounds, and 2 steals. The most dominant stat line came from former Trojan Evan Mobley, who had 22 points, 19 rebounds, and 3 blocks.
Mobley was a force, and he was the best player on the court. This was the best version that has been shown by the Big 4 in Cleveland, and it should give nothing but confidence that this group can come out of the East. Their dominant 122-116 win came against one of the hottest teams in the NBA as of late, and a potential first-round matchup for Cleveland in the Atlanta Hawks.
