Cavaliers' Donovan Mitchell: Poor shooting in Game 4 loss
Mitchell logged 20 points (6-24 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal over 37 minutes during Sunday's 93-89 loss to the Raptors in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Analysis:
Mitchell once again struggled from the field during Sunday's loss, missing 10 of his 12 shot attempts from within the arc and nine of his 13 field-goal attempts in the second half. He averaged 31.0 points a game across the first two games of the series, but that number dropped to 17.5 points across Games 3 and 4, going 13-for-40 (32.5 percent) from the field in that span. The series will shift back to Cleveland for Game 5 on Wednesday.
