The series is now tied 2-2, heading back to Cleveland. All grades are based on our usual expectations for each player. Donovan Mitchell 20 points, 3 assists, 6 rebounds, 4 turnovers We’ve seen the worst of Mitchell across the last two games.

An overliance on jumpers. Not having the size to break free from Scottie Barnes in the halfcourt. And, most of all, being an option for the Raptors to attack offensively.

Mitchell finished the game shooting 6-24. The Cavs won’t win another game this series if Mitchell doesn’t adjust. He’s been at the core of all their problems, failing to score efficiently or handle the ball with care.
