Mobley Powers Cavs to 4th Straight Win as East Favorites

The Cleveland Cavaliers are riding a four-game winning streak, led by a dominant performance from their Big 3 as they emerge as the current favorites to win the Eastern Conference.

Despite missing Jarrett Allen, the Cavs defeated the Orlando Magic as their core trio thrived. Donovan Mitchell scored 42 points, James Harden added 26 and seven assists, and Evan Mobley went perfect from the field with 19 points and nine rebounds.

With Boston cooling down and Detroit dealing with injuries, Cleveland is emerging as the clear favorite to win the East. Mobley's return should bolster their championship hopes further.
