Leading scorer in loss Mitchell closed Thursday's 103-95 loss to the Trail Blazers with 23 points (7-20 FG, 1-9 3Pt, 8-8 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and four steals across 33 minutes.

Impact The 27-year-old guard led the Cavs in scoring, but his struggles from beyond the arc were also emblematic as the team shot just 21.9 percent (7-for-32) from three-point range on the night. Mitchell is still trying to find his rhythm since returning from a hamstring strain -- over his last four games, he's shooting 36.3 percent from the floor and just 19.4 percent (6-for-31) from long distance while averaging 23.8 points, 7.0 boards, 5.3 assists, 2.3 steals and 1.5 threes.

Explodes for 40 points Mitchell amassed 40 points (14-25 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 9-9 FT), 11 rebounds, five assists, one block and three steals over 35 minutes during Tuesday's 128-105 victory over Atlanta.

Impact The Cavaliers needed Mitchell to be at his best Tuesday, and the veteran scorer stepped up en route to delivering his second 40-point performance of the current season. Perhaps more importantly, this was an excellent bounce-back effort for Mitchell after a subpar 10-point outing against the Raptors on Sunday. Fully recovered from a hamstring injury that sidelined him for four consecutive games, it's worth noting Mitchell has now scored at least 20 points in four of his last five appearances.

Falls flat versus Toronto Mitchell provided 10 points (4-17 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Sunday's 105-102 win over the Raptors.

Impact Since returning from a four-game absence due to a hamstring injury, Mitchell has totaled just 32 points on an 8-for-35 mark from the field over Cleveland's past two games. Before he was sidelined, Mitchell averaged 29.2 points on 48.6 percent shooting over his first 10 appearances of the season, so his back-to-back poor performances can likely be attributed to shaking off some rust following extended time off.

Struggles with shot in return Mitchell posted 22 points (4-18 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 12-13 FT), five rebounds, six assists and one steal across 35 minutes during Saturday's 121-115 loss to the Lakers.

Impact Mitchell returned following a four-game absence due to a hamstring injury and look a bit rusty, going just 4-for-18 from the field. On a positive note, he still managed to post 22 points thanks to a 12-for-13 effort from the charity stripe, and he turned the ball over only once. Mitchell's 35 minutes in the loss was in line with his season average, so it appears that he isn't under any restrictions despite the recent injury.

Impact Mitchell will miss a fourth straight game due to a right hamstring strain. His next chance to suit up will come Saturday against Los Angeles. In Mitchell's absence, Dean Wade had been starting, but he's doubtful Wednesday due to an ankle sprain. Caris LeVert (knee) is questionable, while Ty Jerome (ankle) and Isaac Okoro (knee) remain out, so Craig Porter and Sam Merrill are candidates for increased roles versus Miami.
