Evan Mobley Right Knee Soreness Questionable
Injury Report
The Cleveland Cavaliers will be without starting center Evan Mobley on Saturday night when they visit the Toronto Raptors. Mobley is dealing with right knee soreness and is listed as questionable for the game.
Other Injuries
In addition to Mobley, the Cavaliers are also without Darius Garland (ankle) and Ricky Rubio (knee). Garland is expected to miss multiple games, while Rubio is out for the season.
The Raptors, meanwhile, are relatively healthy. They have no major injuries to report.
What to Expect
With Mobley out, the Cavaliers will likely start Jarrett Allen at center. Allen is a solid defender and rebounder, but he is not as good of a scorer as Mobley. The Cavaliers will also need to find a way to replace Mobley's production on the defensive end.
The Raptors will be looking to take advantage of Mobley's absence. They have a number of talented players, including Pascal Siakam, Fred VanVleet, and OG Anunoby. The Raptors are also playing well at home this season, with a record of 12-8.
The Cavaliers will need to play their best game if they want to win without Mobley. They will need to be strong on the defensive end and they will need to find a way to score against a tough Raptors defense.
