Evan Mobley (ankle) officially out Wednesday for Cavaliers
Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley (ankle) is out for Wednesday against the Atlanta Hawks.
What It Means:
This was expected after Mobley injured his ankle on Tuesday against the Boston Celtics and exited the arena on crutches. Dean Wade could draw a start in the second leg of the back-to-back after scoring a career-high 23 points (8-11 field goals, 6-9 three-pointers, 1-2 free throws) in 21 minutes off the bench.
numberFire's models project Wade for 25.0 minutes and 18.6 FanDuel points on Wednesday. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Cavs' implied total (106.0) is third-lowest out of 16 active teams today, while the game total (214.5) is second-lowest on the board.
