Mobley is expected to miss extended time after exiting Tuesday's 105-104 win over the Celtics with a left ankle sprain, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mobley has already been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Hawks, but he appears to be headed for another multi-week absence, which isn't surprising given that he was spotted on crutches following his exit from Tuesday's win. The Cavaliers should provide a more concrete timeline following additional tests, but they'll likely proceed with caution to ensure Mobley is close to 100 percent for the postseason. Dean Wade, who had a career-best game during Tuesday's comeback win, could be the primary beneficiary of Mobley's absence.

Mobley won't play Wednesday against the Hawks due to a left ankle sprain.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, Mobley will miss the second leg of the Cavaliers' back-to-back set after he suffered the ankle injury in Tuesday's 105-104 win over the Celtics and was spotted using crutches as he exited the injury. The Cavaliers haven't provided an update on the full extent of Mobley's injury, so he could be at risk of missing time beyond Wednesday. With Mobley out for at least one contest, Dean Wade could be the primary beneficiary after he had one of the best games of his career Tuesday versus Boston.

Mobley (ankle) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Hawks, Chris Fedor of Cleveland.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mobley left Tuesday's game verus Boston with a significant limp, and he was spotted leaving the arena with crutches. There aren't many other details to work with yet, but there should be more clarity Wednesday evening. In Mobley's expected absence, Dean Wade could see a bump in playing time after his breakout performance against the Celtics.

Mobley suffered a left ankle sprain during Tuesday's game versus Boston and will not return, Tom Withers of the Associated Pressreports. He finished with four points (2-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt), six rebounds, four assists and two steals in 23 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Mobley was sporting a heavy limp on his way to the locker room, and the Cavaliers ruled him out pretty quickly. The timing is unfortunate for Cleveland, as they face the Hawks on Wednesday. If Mobley is unable to play, the Cavaliers could look to Georges Niang and Dean Wade to pick up some of those frontcourt minutes.

EDGE Analysis
Mobley initially went to the bench, but after a few minutes he got up and limped to the locker room and looked to be in a lot of pain. If he's unable to return, the Cavaliers could turn to Dean Wade and Georges Niang.

Mobley ended Sunday's 107-98 loss to the Knicks with 13 points (6-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-3 FT), 13 rebounds, six assists and one block in 28 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Mobley recorded his third consecutive double-double despite the loss, but aside from that, he dished out six or more assists for the third time across his last four appearances. Unlocking a new level as a passer would do wonders for Mobley's fantasy upside, but right now, the young forward is already one of the best two-way forwards in The Association. He has racked up 20 double-doubles across 37 appearances in 2023-24.

Mobley had 22 points (7-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 8-11 FT), 17 rebounds, seven assists, two blocks and two steals across 35 minutes during Friday's 110-100 victory over the Pistons.
EDGE Analysis
Despite the fact Mobley had to deal all game long with Jalen Duren and Isaiah Stewart down low, the Cavaliers' big man thrived and posted one of his best stat lines of the season while also finishing just three assists away from a triple-double. Mobley has been on a tear since the league resumed following the All-Star break, averaging 17.0 points, 10.5 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 2.3 blocks and 1.2 steals per contest over his last six appearances.

Mobley racked up 25 points (11-17 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-6 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist, four blocks and one steal over 42 minutes during Wednesday's 132-123 double-overtime loss to the Bulls.
EDGE Analysis
Mobley recorded his first double-double since Feb. 12, when he posted 14 points and 10 rebounds in a loss to the 76ers, but even if he hasn't reached those levels of consistency yet, his two-way contributions are worth highlighting. The third-year forward is averaging 16.1 points, 9.6 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 2.0 blocks per game across his last 10 appearances.

Mobley finished Sunday's 114-105 victory over the Wizards with 21 points (9-11 FG, 3-6 FT), six rebounds, one assist, five blocks and one steal across 29 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
This was Mobley's second game of the season with at least five blocks, as he had a career-high seven blocks against the Hawks on Nov. 28. He's on pace to end February on a high note, averaging 16.3 points, 9.8 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.7 blocks over his last 10 games.
