Cavaliers' Evan Mobley: Hits for 19 against Chicago
Mobley scored 19 points (9-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT) while adding six rebounds, three blocks and an assist in 19 minutes during Tuesday's 116-112 preseason loss to the Bulls.
No Cleveland starter played more than 19 minutes, but Mobley was by far the most efficient and effective of the group in the team's preseason opener. The 23-year-old big man has yet to have a true breakout campaign, but he shot a career-high 58.0 percent from the floor in 2023-24 despite being limited to only 50 regular-season games due to injuries. If he can stay healthy, Mobley could be ready to take a big step forward.
