Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Unlikely to play Friday
Mitchell (groin) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Thunder.
Mitchell sat out Thursday's game against the Rockets and will likely remain out for the second half of the back-to-back set. The 26-year-old returned from a three-game absence Tuesday against the Knicks and played 38 minutes but appeared to aggravate his groin injury late in the matchup, so it's not yet clear when he'll be able to return. Assuming he remains out Friday, Caris LeVert should continue to see increased run for Cleveland.

Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Will not play Thursday
Mitchell (groin) will not take the floor for Thursday's meeting with the Rockets, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
On Tuesday, Mitchell returned from a three-game absence due to the injured left groin and recorded 24 points, eight rebounds and eight assists across 38 minutes. However, with Thursday's contest being the opening leg of a back-to-back set, the Cavaliers will opt to give Mitchell the night off and not risk re-injury. Caris LeVert is the favorite to step into Mitchell's vacated spot in the first unit.

Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Sits out practice Wednesday
Mitchell (groin) failed to practice Wednesday, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
After missing three straight games with a groin injury, Mitchell returned to action in Tuesday's loss to the Knicks but appeared to aggravate the groin issue during the Cavaliers' final possession of the game. Given that the guard failed to practice Wednesday, he should be considered questionable, at best, for Thursday's matchup against the Rockets until the Cavaliers officially release an injury report. Caris LeVert will likely step back into the starting lineup if Mitchell sits out.

Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Teases triple-double in return
Mitchell ended Tuesday's 105-103 loss to the Knicks with 24 points (9-24 FG, 6-14 3Pt), eight rebounds, eight assists, one block and four steals over 38 minutes.
It was a heroic effort from the 26-year-old in his return from a three-game absence due to a groin injury, but he may have overdone it -- Mitchell struggled to get up after his final dunk attempt late in the game was blocked, and per Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com, he said after the game it felt like his groin had tightened up again. The Cavaliers play Thursday in Houston and Friday in Oklahoma City, so Mitchell could be rested for at least one of those games if he's not yet 100 percent.

Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Tabbed probable
Mitchell (groin) is likely to play in Tuesday's matchup with the Knicks, Danny Cunningham of 850 ESPN Cleveland reports.
Mitchell appears to be on pace for a return from a three-game leave due to a strained left groin Tuesday after being listed as probable and logging a full practice Monday. His absence has allowed Caris LeVert to step into the first unit, but LeVert will likely slide back to the bench if Mitchell is active.
