Darius Garland, Evan Mobley Ruled Out for Weeks as Cleveland Cavaliers Woes Continue

The Cleveland Cavaliers took a pair of massive blows this week.

Point guard Darius Garland and center Evan Mobley are both expected to miss multiple weeks with various injuries.

Mobley is set to undergo arthroscopic knee surgery to have a loose body removed from the knee, according to ESPN.

The 2021-22 Rookie of the Year runner-up is averaging 16 points, 10.5 rebounds and 1.7 blocks per game. Mobley is set to miss six-to-eight weeks.

Garland fractured his jaw after colliding with Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis on Thursday. He will also undergo surgery and is expected to miss four weeks.

Garland is averaging 20.7 points and 5.9 assists per game this season.

The Cavaliers have already had their struggles this season. The Cavaliers were expected to be one of the top teams in the Eastern Conference, but are just 13-12 so far.

The Cavaliers are +3500 to win the NBA Finals and +1300 to win the Eastern Conference at BetMGM. Odds didn't move after the announcement of the injuries to the two stars.

However, odds have changed since the start of the season. The Cavaliers started at +2500 to win the championship and +1000 to win the Eastern Conference at BetMGM.
