How the Cavaliers are having Evan Mobley follow the Giannis blueprint

MILWAUKEE -- EVAN MOBLEY steps beyond the 3-point line to set a screen for Donovan Mitchell, a two-man tandem the Cleveland Cavaliers hope will carry them into the future.

It's the first quarter during a matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks -- the first of two road tests in a week around Thanksgiving for the young Cavs against the veteran Bucks -- and the pick-and-roll is executed to perfection. Mobley gives Mitchell an edge over Bucks guard Jevon Carter and then the Cavs 7-footer goes racing toward the rim with both Carter and Brook Lopez focused on Mitchell.
