Donovan Mitchell misses the Cleveland Cavaliers' 115-110 victory over the Chicago Bulls due to a bruised left eye. The injury occurred during a collision with Evan Mobley in practice earlier this week, leaving Mitchell's eye bloodshot. Despite playing with the issue on Tuesday against Milwaukee, he struggled, hitting only 4 of 14 shots for 19 points. Mitchell admitted he faced challenges due to "blurry vision." Cavaliers coach Kenny Atkinson confirmed the injury isn’t serious but emphasized the need for recovery time. This season, Mitchell averages 28.0 points, 5.9 assists, and 4.5 rebounds while shooting 48% across 61 games. Cleveland also plays without center Jarrett Allen, who is sidelined for a seventh straight game due to right knee tendinitis. Allen is set to miss Saturday's matchup against the New Orleans Pelicans.
