Mitchell (illness) is available for Monday's game against the Hornets, Spencer Davies of SI.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mitchell missed Friday's loss to the Bulls due to an illness, but he will return for the front end of Cleveland's back-to-back set. Across seven appearances in December, the star shooting guard has averaged 32.9 points, 5.4 assists, 3.9 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 34.7 minutes per contest. His return should mean fewer minutes for Tyrese Proctor, who got the starting nod Friday.

Mitchell (illness) won't suit up for Friday's game versus the Bulls, Chuck Swirsky of the Bulls Radio Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Mitchell unavailable Friday night, Darius Garland should see a sizable uptick in usage, and there will be more opportunity for guys like Lonzo Ball, De'Andre Hunter and Jaylon Tyson. Mitchell's next chance to play will come Monday against the Hornets, which will be the first game of a back-to-back set.

Mitchell has evidently picked up an illness over the last few days, and his availability for Friday is now up in the air. The team will presumably monitor the star guard closely leading up to tipoff to determine if he's able to suit up.

Mitchell posted 17 points (6-24 FG, 1-11 3Pt, 4-5 FT), two rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals over 38 minutes during Sunday's 119-111 overtime loss to the Hornets.
EDGE Analysis
It was Mitchell's worst shooting performance of the season, as he failed to score at least 28 points for the first time in December. The All-Star guard has still drained at least one three-pointer in every game he's played this season, and through the first six contests this month he's averaging 33.0 points, 5.5 assists, 4.3 boards, 4.0 threes and 1.3 steals.

Mitchell delivered 48 points (17-31 FG, 8-15 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds, four assists and two steals across 35 minutes in Friday's 130-126 win over the Wizards.
EDGE Analysis
Mitchell had to step up for the Cavaliers in a game that turned out to be more complicated than expected, and the star guard posted a new season-high scoring mark in this win. This was Mitchell's fourth game with more than 40 points this season.

Mitchell registered 29 points (11-26 FG, 7-14 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists and one block in 37 minutes during Saturday's 99-94 loss to the Warriors.
EDGE Analysis
Mitchell wasn't shy about hunting his shot Saturday and ended two field-goal attempts short of matching his season-high mark. He knocked down at least seven triples for the third time this season. The star guard led all players in points and has now racked up at least 28 in four consecutive games to kick off December. Over that stretch, he has averaged 33.3 points, 5.5 assists, 5.0 rebounds and 1.0 steals per game.

Mitchell racked up 28 points (9-17 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 9-11 FT), two rebounds, eight assists and three steals across 32 minutes during Friday's 130-117 win over the Spurs.
EDGE Analysis
According to Ethan Sands of The Cleveland Plain Dealer, Mitchell appeared to tweak something in his right hand during the game. While he was able to play through it, this could result in Mitchell being added to the injury report ahead of Saturday's game against the Warriors. If he does need to skip the second leg of this back-to-back set, Darius Garland would be asked to step it up on offense and there would be more minutes available for Craig Porter.

Mitchell logged 33 points (12-26 FG, 3-13 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, five assists and one steal across 34 minutes of Wednesday's 122-110 loss to the Trail Blazers.
EDGE Analysis
Mitchell had another strong showing Wednesday, but it wasn't enough as the Cavaliers continue to struggle. Cleveland has lost four of their last five games, but Mitchell has certainly pulled his weight. During that stretch, the guard has averaged 30.6 points on 47.9 percent shooting from the field with 6.0 assists, 5.0 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 4.0 three-pointers.
