Injury Updates Cleveland Cavaliers – Memphis Grizzlies
The Cavaliers are coming into this game on the strength of a 113-103 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans. The defense was outstanding, and they’ll need to maintain that level of intensity if they’re going to challenge the Grizzlies on the road.
Injury Report: Donovan Mitchell SG (Groin) is questionable. Dylan Windler SG (Ankle) and Dean Wade SF (Shoulder) are out.
Donovan Mitchell has a groin injury and may not play against the Grizzlies on Wednesday.
