Donovan Mitchell Supported by Veteran Mario Hezonja to Relieve Ball-Handling Load

Cleveland Cavaliers superstar Donovan Mitchell received tactical support from returning veteran Mario Hezonja, who waived off Mitchell during Thursday's contest to take on an isolation play. Hezonja explained that his presence is designed to absorb physical pressure and conserve Mitchell for late-game situations and the postseason, an approach endorsed by Cavaliers head coach Kenny Atkinson.
