US EditionCavs' Donovan Mitchell questionable for Tuesday's game
- The Cleveland Cavaliers lost 129-109 to the Indiana Pacers on May 11 during Game 4 of their second-round playoff series in Indiana.
- This loss followed Donovan Mitchell reaggravating a sprained left ankle suffered on April 6 against the Sacramento Kings, leaving his status uncertain for Game 5.
- Mitchell, who missed the last four regular-season games due to this injury, did not play the second half of Game 4 after experiencing pain during halftime warm-ups and underwent an MRI that confirmed the sprain.
- Across eight playoff contests, Mitchell is putting up averages of nearly 29 points along with over four rebounds and assists per game, though Cavaliers coach Kenny Atkinson has designated him as a game-time decision for the crucial Game 5 in Cleveland on May 13, where the Pacers currently hold a 3-1 series lead.
- With several Cavaliers sidelined during the playoffs and Mitchell's participation uncertain, Cleveland faces the challenge of winning three straight contests—one of which must be on Indiana's home court—to keep their postseason hopes alive and prevent being ousted from the series.
