Playoff Spida arrived just in time. Behind star guard Donovan Mitchell’s late-game flurry, the top-seeded Cavs avoided a fourth-quarter collapse in Game 2 of their first-round matchup with the eighth-seeded Miami Heat,

It was a win-by-committee game for Cleveland as six different players were in double figures with Darius Garland (toe) ruled out shortly before tipoff. Donovan Mitchell posted 13 points, Jarrett Allen had 22, Max Strus dropped 18 and Evan Mobley added 19.

For months, the Cleveland Cavaliers had one singular mission: get to the playoffs healthy. It wasn’t just a hope. Instead, it was an organizational mandate. And as the postseason looms, that mission is accomplished.
