Darius Garland scored 18 of his 30 points in the fourth quarter, lifting a Cavs team without Donovan Mitchell, De'Andre Hunter or Ty Jerome.
Darius Garland scored 18 of his 30 points in the fourth quarter and the NBA-leading Cleveland Cavaliers rallied for a 109-104 victory over the Brooklyn Nets on Tuesday night.
Mobley didn't supply his typical dose of defensive production, but he was still productive in Tuesday's win. He combined with Darius Garland and Jarrett Allen to scored 74 of Cleveland's 109 points with Donovan Mitchell (groin) sidelined for this game. The assists were a nice boost, and this was his second game with at least six assists in a game since the All-Star break. Mobley has had a spectacular defensive season which has him in consideration for league's Defensive Player of the Year award. Expect him to get back to providing more defensive stats over their final two games of the week.
With Donovan Mitchell (groin) sidelined, Garland stepped up to carry the offense for Cleveland. He did a lot of his work late in this game to help them complete the comeback. Garland scored 18 points in the fourth quarter, which was as many as the Nets scored as a team in the final frame. Cleveland outscored them 31-18 in the fourth to give them their 15th-straight victory. Mitchell will likely see more scheduled rest nights as the season winds down, which will be more opportunities for Garland to shine. However, Garland may see rest nights as well.
Okoro will make a return to the starting lineup with both Donovan Mitchell (groin) and De'Andre Hunter (illness) sidelined. Okoro started twice in February, but wasn't productive in either stint. He'll provide defense on the perimeter, but that hasn't translated to fantasy production throughout his career.
