Cleveland Cavaliers star guard Donovan Mitchell acquired a platelet-rich plasma injection Monday to deal with a bone bruise in his left knee and will likely be out not less than the subsequent three video games, the crew introduced.
Mitchell has missed the previous two video games with knee soreness. He may even be out Tuesday in opposition to the Boston Celtics, Wednesday in opposition to the Atlanta Hawks and Friday in opposition to the Minnesota Timberwolves.
His standing will then be reevaluated over the weekend, in line with the crew.
Mitchell, 27, is within the midst of one other glorious season, averaging 28 factors to go together with 6.2 assists and 5.4 rebounds, and has helped carry an oft-injured Cavs crew to a top-three seed within the East.
The Cavaliers enter Monday night time a half-game again of the Milwaukee Bucks for the No. 2 seed and are 4 video games up within the loss column on the New York Knicks, who’re fourth.
