Cavs Sideline Mitchell, Prioritize Health for Playoffs
Description
The Cleveland Cavaliers are prioritizing long-term health over short-term wins, sidelining All-Star guard Donovan Mitchell due to a right groin strain. Coach Kenny Atkinson is using advanced testing and data to make these calls, as the team has dealt with bad injury luck all season. Despite setbacks like Jarrett Allens knee injury and sprained ankles for Dean Wade and Dennis Schroder, the Cavs see these games as practice runs to build chemistry. Mitchell is expected to return soon for the big clash with the Boston Celtics, setting them up strong for the postseason push.
