Cleveland is the No. 1 team in the Eastern Conference and is trying to take advantage of the window they have to compete for an NBA title.

That includes Mitchell, the six-time All-Star and early-season MVP candidate who has lost his way during a rotten March that harkens back to a year ago when he was battling a painful knee injury that zapped his explosiveness and nearly wrecked his season

In the grand scheme of things, a four-game losing streak isn’t really that big of a deal. Not in March and certainly not for a contender like the Cavaliers.
