CLEVELAND (WJW) – Cleveland Cavaliers Star Donovan Mitchell will not face the Charlotte Hornets on Sunday as the Cavs try to keep their longest winning streak in club history alive.

The NBA released its injury report Saturday night, which says Mitchell will be out for rest during Sunday’s game. It also says starter Evan Mobley, who already missed the last game with an illness, likely won’t return just yet.
