At Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse in Cleveland, there were MVP chants in support of LeBron James’ return, but not for the player you might expect.
Donovan Mitchell exploded for 43 points to lead the Cavaliers past the brash Lakers at James’ homecoming.
The Lakers had an 8-2 record in their last ten games going into this matchup, but when Anthony Davis left the game in the first quarter with flu-like symptoms, they couldn’t replace his performance.
