Open Extended ReactionsCavaliers star Donovan Mitchell was in the starting lineup for Cleveland's must-win Game 5 of its second-round series against the Indiana Pacers on Tuesday despite dealing with a sprained left ankle. Mitchell, who had been listed as questionable, came out for his usual pregame shooting routine less than an hour before tipoff. Mitchell provided an early clue about his status three hours before the game when he took to X with the Cavaliers' hashtag theme of #LetEmKnow.

Merrill, who averaged 7.2 points off the bench this season, scored 14 points against the Pacers in Game 2.
