The Cleveland Cavaliers defeated the Orlando Magic 107-101 Monday, but had to fight through what has become a common theme this season, injuries. Evan Mobley, Lauri Markkanen, and Lamar Stevens all dealt with injuries in the contest. Markkanen would return after his injury with Stevens playing through his. The big news was Mobley not returning after suffering an ankle sprain.

Evan Mobley is out for the remainder of the game with an ankle sprain.

Lauri Markkanen was helped off the court with an apparent leg injury.

Lamar Stevens banged up his wrist, but is playing through it.

Even though this seems to be another doom and gloom injury scenario there is some good news. ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported that the x-rays on Mobley’s ankle came back negative.

The Cavaliers being able to have Mobley back as the season winds down and the postseason begins makes a huge difference for just how far they can go.
