Cleveland Cavaliers star Donovan Mitchell was set to have an MRI on Monday of the ankle that he injured in a Game 4 blowout loss to the Indiana Pacers in the second round of the playoffs.
Mitchell did not play in the second half. He appeared to experience pain while warming up during halftime.
He finished with 12 points in 20 minutes as the Cavs trailed 80-39 at halftime and lost 129-109.
Coach Kenny Atkinson said after the game Sunday night that Mitchell would have an MRI of his left ankle.
The No. 4-seeded Pacers, up in the series 3-1, can close it out Tuesday in Cleveland, where they’ve already won twice.
