Evan Mobley OUT for extended period of time w/ injury & how Dean Wade became an overnight Cavs HERO
Dean Wade did the unthinkable on Tuesday night. The Cleveland Cavaliers backup forward went supernova in the 4th quarter, outscoring the Boston Celtics by himself. The scoring outburst was much needed with Donovan Mitchell sidelined with a knee injury, and Evan Mobley out with an twisted ankle, and it helped the Cavs secure a big time win over the red-hot Boston Celtics. Wade is now just the second player in the league to shoot 100% from deep in a 4th quarter this season with at least five attempts, joining Max Strus who did it last week against the Mavs. McNuggets and Jason break down some film on Wade's heroic performance to help better understand how and why he was able to come through in the clutch. Donovan Mitchell is out for at least 2 more games, but his absence could be longer. If Mitchell isn't back soon, how does that effect the Cavs chances of holding on to a top two seed in the East? Can JB Bickerstaff continue to play both Jarrett Allen & Evan Mobley together in crunch time? The guys discuss whether or not the Cavs are best suited with two bigs in the lineup. And lastly, we have some fun discussing Jason Lloyd's playful back and forth with JB Bickerstaff before last night's game.
