Donovan Mitchell Ruled Out for Friday with Groin Injury

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell has been officially ruled out for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons due to a groin injury. This will be Mitchell's second consecutive game on the inactive list, with the early ruling being somewhat discouraging. He should be considered questionable for the Cavaliers' upcoming Sunday game in Brooklyn. In his absence, Dennis Schroder, Jaylon Tyson, and Sam Merrill are expected to see more shot attempts, while Craig Porter will likely receive increased playing time.
