With the Cavs missing two of their most important players, Porter helped Cleveland remain undefeated and advance to the semifinals in Vegas with an 87-83 come-from-behind win over the Chicago Bulls.

Mobley, the 49th pick of the 2022 draft, stuffed the stat sheet once again, pouring in 18 points, grabbing 12 rebounds and dishing out four assists in 32 productive minutes. Rookie Emoni Bates added 15 points on an inefficient 5 of 15 from the field and 2 of 8 from 3-point range. Cooper tallied 11 points before leaving with injury. His status for Sunday’s playoff round is uncertain. Sources say Merrill is likely to play. The Cavs don’t yet know who their opponent will be.

In the days leading up to Summer League, Porter talked about being overlooked and playing with a chip on his shoulder. He brought up another player from his alma mater in the same ilk -- Fred VanVleet.It took a while. But VanVleet has proven everyone wrong. Not only has he become an NBA champion and All-Star but he signed a $130 million contract with the Houston Rockets this summer.

“Everybody’s dream is to come in and play right away. But I know it’s going to take time to get there, especially being undrafted,” Porter said recently. “Sitting down with Cleveland coaches and scouts, they had a plan for me -- even if it’s not what I wanted right away. This is the best thing for my career.”
