Cavaliers struggle to find consistency, which is why they are in such an awkward position.

After that, the Cavs got blown by the Phoenix Suns in Arizona, 122-101.
Three of the players scored 20 or more points. Donovan Mitchell had 24 points, while Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley scored 20 each. Mobley also had nine boards and seven assists. What was the biggest problem for the franchise from Ohio in this event was the three-point percentage, because they made only seven of 26 attempts.
