CLE • Guard • #45

After a one-game absence, Mitchell returned to the floor on Thursday and added to his streak of 30-point games, which now sits at four. Efficient shooting helped lead him to a team-high in points, with most of his scoring production coming in a 19-point second half. Mitchell also tied a season-high in assists in his effort to give the Cavs a second straight win. A flurry from the T’Wolves in the third quarter ultimately swung the game in their favor, leaving Mitchell’s production wasted in a loss. Both he and the Cavs will have a chance to avenge their loss on Saturday at home against the same Timberwolves.

Mitchell will get the night off against a lottery team. That will leave an open spot in the starting unit, which will likely be filled by one of Sam Merrill, Jaylon Tyson or Dean Wade. All three, along with De’Andre Hunter, will see a bump in minutes and usage.

Mitchell has scored at least 30 points in 20 of the 34 games he’s played this season, including each of the last three. The only thing missing from the Cavaliers’ guard’s stat line on Sunday was a blocked shot, but fantasy managers aren’t going to lose any sleep over that. Cleveland plays three games in Week 12, starting with the Pacers on Tuesday.

Mitchell, who topped 30 points for the 19th time this season, locked horns with his Nuggets counterpart Jamal Murray as the pair traded punches down the home stretch with the Cavaliers erasing a late deficit to emerge with a narrow victory. The 29-year-old scoring machine, who has graded out as a top-10 fantasy contributor this season, has put together back-to-back strong performances and will look to keep the momentum going on Sunday when the Cavaliers square off against the upstart Pistons.

After scoring 26 total points across his last two games, Mitchell responded in a big way in his final game of 2025. This was only his second double-double of the season, and he made in impact in categories across the board. Mitchell is averaging career highs in points and three-pointers while also having the most efficient shooting season of his career. He’ll look to stay hot against the Nuggets on Friday in Cleveland’s next game.

Cleveland’s starting backcourt struggled on Saturday, as Mitchell struggled with his shot and Darius Garland (12 points, one assist and two three-pointers) only recorded one assist. Mitchell was coming off a 34-point effort against the Knicks on Christmas Day, and the production throughout the season makes it easy to write off Saturday’s performance. He and the Cavaliers will look to bounce back when they visit the Spurs on Monday.

Mitchell came out hot on Christmas Day, shooting 5-of-6 from the field in the first quarter. He finished with a robust stat line, recording his third 30-point game in the last four. Unfortunately for Mitchell and the Cavaliers, they were unable to avoid losing a 17-point lead, falling to 17-15 on the season. Cleveland ends its Week 10 slate in Houston on Saturday.

Mitchell caught fire late in this one, drilling 7-of-8 shots in the second half — including three from deep — to pour in a 18 points after halftime. Cleveland knocked down a staggering 20-of-49 from three-point range to cruise to a relatively easy win. The 29-year-old scoring machine has topped 27 points in eight of nine contests since the outset of December. He’s delivered first-round fantasy value, averaging 30.6 points, 4.5 rebounds, 5.4 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.3 blocks through 28 games this season.

After sitting out Friday’s loss to the Hornets with an illness, Mitchell looked spry in Monday’s rematch. He’s scored at least 30 points in 16 of his 27 appearances, including the last two. Mitchell’s return pushed Tyrese Proctor out of the rotation, as he only played the final two minutes. The Cavaliers host the Pelicans on Tuesday; if Mitchell doesn’t play, there may be room for Proctor in the starting five if Sam Merrill doesn’t play.

Mitchell is back after sitting out Friday’s loss to the Hornets. In the lone change to the Cavaliers’ starting lineup, his return means that Tyrese Proctor heads to the bench. And with Sam Merrill also available, the rookie could fall out of the rotation entirely.

No surprise here as Mitchell was initially listed as probable with an illness. The 29-year-old shooting guard missed Friday’s loss to the Bulls with an illness. Tyrese Proctor replaced Mitchell in the starting lineup Friday, but could fall out of the rotation entirely with Mitchell and Sam Merrill (hand) back Monday.

No Mitchell may result in De’Andre Hunter returning to the starting lineup. While his category league value has been limited, Hunter will be worth streaming with Cleveland playing without its two best players. Jaylon Tyson, already in the starting lineup, will also have added fantasy value. He’s the superior streaming option for fantasy managers needing a guard.

Mitchell put up 32 points in Wednesday’s loss to the Bulls in Chicago. If he’s unable to play in Friday’s rematch, the Cavaliers would have a massive hole to fill in their lineup. De’Andre Hunter could move back into the starting lineup, but his category league value has been limited this season.

The Cavaliers continue to underwhelm, with Mitchell’s gaudy point total being one of the few bright spots on Wednesday. He’s scored at least 30 points in 15 of the 26 games he has played this season, one reason why Spida is providing top-10 per-game value in eight-cat formats. While injuries have left the Cavaliers shorthanded, inconsistent play has also been an issue. Mitchell has been left to shoulder a heavier workload. While that has benefited those who have him rostered, it isn’t the best approach for a team that fashions itself as a title contender.

It was an off-night for Cleveland’s primary catalyst as Mitchell went just 1-of-10 from three-point range during regulation and missed a potential game-winning jumper at the buzzer. He also came up empty on all three of his shot attempts during overtime as Charlotte pulled out a stunning win. The clunker comes on the heels of a surreal 48-point eruption during Friday’s win over the lowly Wizards. He’ll attempt to rebound next week when the Cavaliers face off against the reeling Bulls in a pair of contests.

The Cavaliers got back in the win column on Friday behind Mitchell’s highest scoring performance of the season. The veteran combo guard got up over 30 shot attempts for the first time this season, which he converted efficiently en route to a near 50-point performance. He used the three-point shot to his advantage and, despite the high volume of shots, he made at least a little bit of impact as a facilitator along the way. Mitchell has been on a tear lately, scoring 40 or more points in three of his last seven games and nailing at least seven threes in each of said games. He will look to stay hot against the Hornets on Sunday.

The Cavaliers got off to an ice-cold start on the second night of a back-to-back, scoring a season-low 36 points in the first half. Mitchell came alive after the break, burying seven three-pointers and dropping 21 points in the second half as Cleveland roared back to make this one close. He had an opportunity to knock down a game-tying three-pointer in the final seconds but came up empty. The 29-year-old scoring machine is averaging 30.5 points, 4.8 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.3 blocks over 23 games this season. The Cavaliers are off until Friday when they face the floundering Wizards before closing out a two-game week with a home matchup against the Hornets.

Mitchell is enjoying the best offensive season of his career, which has gone under the radar due to the Cavaliers’ struggles. He’s averaging a career-best 30.6 points per game while also shooting over 50 percent from the floor for the first time in his career. “Only” scoring 28 points in this game actually dropped his average slightly. He’ll keep pouring in the points to help the Cavs stay afloat until they get healthy.

Mitchell has scored at least 30 points in 13 games this season, including three of his last four. The Cavaliers guard once again did most of the heavy lifting offensively, as Darius Garland (6/3/4/0/1 with one three-pointer) shot 2-of-13 from the field. Mitchell had a tough night from deep, shooting 3-of-13 on three-pointers, but the two-point production salvaged the overall field-goal percentage. Cleveland hosts San Antonio on Friday.

With Darius Garland unavailable, Mitchell took on more of the playmaking responsibilities on Monday. That did not keep him from seeking his own shot, as the Cavaliers star put up 27 and finished with his first 40-point game of the season. Mitchell and Jaylon Tyson combined to score 70 of Cleveland’s 135 points, more than compensating for the absences of Garland and Jarrett Allen. So far, Mitchell has provided first-round per-game value in eight-cat formats, and he isn’t far away from doing the same in nine-cat.

Mitchell got off to an extremely slow start by his lofty standards in this one, but he came alive in the closing moments, draining a pair of three-pointers to make it a one possession game on two separate occasions during the final minute. He’s failed to break 20 points in two of his last three games, but went off for 42 points in the other contest during that stretch. He’s delivered second-round fantasy value this season, averaging 29.9 points, 4.8 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 1.5 steals through 19 games.

Mitchell bounced back after being held to just 17 points against Toronto on Monday. The extra rest may have helped him surpass 40 points for the second time this year, but it wasn’t enough for Cleveland to get the win. He did his best by scoring 16 points in the final frame, but they still lost a second straight game. Next up is a matchup with the Celtics on Sunday to wrap up this week. That will be a lone home game for Cleveland after two straight on the road, which may be needed after consecutive losses.

Mitchell failed to sustain the hot hand from his 37-point outing against the Clippers on Sunday. On the second night of a back-to-back, the superstar scoring struggled for much of Monday’s contest — he only tallied seven points through three quarters before chipping in 10 more in the fourth quarter. Inefficiency both inside and outside the arc hurt his production, and low free-throw output didn’t do much to make up for the off-shooting night. However, Mitchell did produce a game-high in assists and nearly notched the double-double. He’ll have a few days off before taking the court on Friday against the Hawks.

The Clippers didn’t have an answer for Mitchell on Sunday, as he did most of what he wanted in the 120-105 victory. Since missing the Cavaliers’ November 12 game against Miami, he has scored at least 30 points in five of the last six games. During this run, Mitchell has averaged 31.3 points, 6.0 rebounds, 5.2 assists, 1.3 steals and 3.7 three-pointers while shooting 52.5 percent from the field. He’s been on a roll recently, which has been a significant development for those who have Spida rostered. Cleveland opens a three-game Week 6 in Toronto on Monday.

Mitchell had yet another 30-point game against the Pacers on Friday. Only the Thunder’s Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has more games with at least 30 points this season. Mitchell showed incredible awareness without the ball in his hands in the third quarter when he signaled for Dean Wade to shoot a three-pointer. The 29-year-old shooting guard continues to light it up for the Cavaliers this year with a 30.2 points per game average.

Mitchell had arguably his quietest third quarter of the season on Wednesday, as he did not attempt a shot from the field. However, the Cavaliers won that period by a 30-17 margin as others picked up the slack offensively. With Darius Garland (toe) out, Mitchell has assumed the starting point guard role, and the balance between scoring and setting up others has been challenging to navigate at times. Cavaliers head coach Kenny Atkinson said before Wednesday’s game that Garland is “really close” to a return, and that should benefit Mitchell.

Mitchell was sizzling-hot at the outset of this one, knocking down 10 of 13 shots to finish the first half with a game-high 25 points. He cooled off considerably in the second half, but got enough help from his supporting cast to hold off a late rally from a Milwaukee squad playing without star Giannis Antetokounmpo, who left the contest with three minutes remaining in the second quarter due to a left groin strain. Mitchell has been sensational to open the year, averaging a career-best 30.9 points while shooting 38.8 percent from three and attempting an eye-popping 7.5 free throws per game through 13 contests. The Cavaliers are back in action when they host the Rockets on Wednesday night.

The Cavs trailed by eight entering the fourth quarter of this game, but Mitchell’s 14 fourth-quarter points helped them to turn this game around. Mitchell has been on a scoring tear to start this year and is currently averaging 30.4 points and 4.0 three-pointers per game, which would both be the best marks of his career. Cleveland has four games next week, all at home. Mitchell will look to stay hot against the Bucks on Monday.

Mitchell sat out the first leg of this back-to-back, but the added rest didn’t help his efficiency. He had a rough shooting night and set a new season-high for turnovers. Mitchell redeemed his night by getting to the free throw line early and often, which is where he accounted for nearly half his points. Still, it’s difficult to be overly critical of a 30-point performance. He’ll look to close out the week on a high note against the Grizzlies on Saturday.
