The Cleveland Cavaliers shocked the NBA world with a stunning Game 2 victory over the Boston Celtics in the Eastern Conference Second Round Playoffs. After a disappointing blowout loss in Game 1, the Cavaliers came out determined and focused, ultimately defeating the Celtics 112-108 on the road.
The key to Cleveland’s success? Rookie sensation Evan Mobley. The young forward put on a show, finishing with 21 points on an impressive 9-of-15 shooting, along with 10 rebounds, five assists, and two blocks. His stellar performance not only helped the Cavaliers secure their first win of the series but also caught the attention of ESPN’s Brian Windhorst.
Windhorst was effusive in his praise for Mobley, stating, “If Evan Mobley plays like this, they can win a championship in the next three years, if he plays like this the rest of the series, baby, clear your June.” The analyst’s bold claim underscores the impact Mobley can have on the team’s success moving forward.
With the series now tied at 1-1, the Cavaliers have momentum on their side as they head back to Cleveland for the next two games. If Mobley can continue to shine and lead the team with his exceptional play, the Celtics could be in for a tough battle in the upcoming games. Cleveland fans are undoubtedly excited about the potential of their young star and the team’s prospects in the playoffs.
