#Cavs are saying it’s a right elbow sprain for Evan Mobley that kept him from playing the final 11 minutes. – 10:28 PM

Is there any update on Evan Mobley? – 9:41 PM

#Cavs J.B. Bickerstaff said he did not have a status update on Evan Mobley. He hasn’t had a conversation with the training staff yet.
He said Mobley got “tangled up” in the fourth quarter.
Mobley played just 56 seconds in the fourth quarter. – 9:41 PM

Tatum now 5 for his last 8 after starting 10-30 in the two games at Cleveland.
He was shooting 37% (72-195) over the last nine games.
Rookie Evan Mobley was shooting 58% (39-67) over his last five games.
He’s 0-11 tonight.
Celtics up 71-64, early 4th. – 8:48 PM

Well, that was an *interesting* first half. Both #Cavs and Celtics struggled to generate their offenses. Cavs lead 39-37 at the end of the first half. Isaac Okoro leads the Cavs with 10 pts.
Evan Mobley starts off with an off-shooting night. He’s missed all 7 of his shots. – 8:00 PM

Chris Fedor @ChrisFedor
Veteran Al Horford is definitely giving #Cavs rookie Evan Mobley some issues. There will be nights like that. There will be matchups like that. Similar to Suns game earlier this season with Deandre Ayton. But even with his shot not falling, Mobley has 4 asts, 5 rebs and a block – 8:00 PM

That was a niiiiccee pass by the young man, Evan Mobley, to hit a cutting Cedi Oman. – 7:30 PM

#Cavs will start Ricky Rubio, Darius Garland, Isaac Okoro, Dean Wade and Evan Mobley tonight against the Celtics. – 6:25 PM

Chris Fedor @ChrisFedor
#Cavs will be starting Ricky Rubio tonight with Jarrett Allen (illness) unavailable to play. Everyone will just move over one spot. Darius Garland, Ricky Rubio, Isaac Okoro, Dean Wade and Evan Mobley. – 6:02 PM

#Cavs Darius Garland and Evan Mobley were nominees for the NBA’s Eastern Conference Player of the Week award that went to the Nets’ Kevin Durant. – 3:48 PM
